Re: Way Wear, Hard Gibs
Hi Mike, Yep, I think you've established the rear slide wears most but not rapidly. I'm still planning to shim & lap my original slides like you. I did forget the other major source of lifting forces

Re: Way Wear, Hard Gibs
Marty, what's the vehicle that your "gearbox of English design from the 40's" is used in? I have a similar English design (from the 30's) on my Norton Commando motorcycle. It has worked fine for 2

Fair 'nuff Marty. I get down to detail in electronics stuff where I know my territory. No qualms about ripping commercial gear apart and redesigning. This stuff is out of my territory and went

Re: Homier vs Cummins - Better Buy?
I actually called to order an 8x12 last weekend and found the price had gone up, it is now $499, and it's on back order with no expected date. So instead of waiting, or going bigger, I decided to save

Re: Homier vs Cummins - Better Buy?
I too was going for Cummins but have decided to go for the harbor freight model 44859 8x12 which is the same one sold by lathemaster. It is really an 8x14 and when on sale for 439.00 a much more solid

Homier vs Cummins - Better Buy?
I'm looking at buying a 7x12 and am trying to decide between the Homier and the Cummins. It appears the Cummins, although $100 more comes with more accessories, but Homier has an accessory kit for

Re: Way Wear, Hard Gibs
Hi Marty, Gotta go with Roy on this one. You're making things overly complex. This isn't a big lathe. The existing plates are quite adequate once shimmed properly. I haven't shimmed yet but plan to. I
