I'm beginning to think boosting Rabid's business isn't such a bad idea. Uncle Rabid, how much would you charge to take my controller, beef up all the crap circuit-board parts and tweak the pots for

G'day Ed. The control boards have a current limit adjustment which sets the maximum current which can be fed to the motor. I only have circuit details of the board in my lathe (As available off the

Ian - So what does this mean - the board automatically limits current to what it's set at? Is this similar to a 'chopper' circuit? The control board I built for my CNC router allows me to set the

I wanted to let everyone know about three Flickr groups I've created: http://www.flickr.com/groups/grizhfminimill http://www.flickr.com/groups/9x20lathe http://www.flickr.com/groups/7x12minilathe

CJ, go to http://www.mini-lathe.com/ Then click on Premium Content. You'll have to pay $4.95 (I think) and there you will find an excellent education on the knurling. I paid for unlimited access to

See the 7x12 Files section, FAQ which has a basic overview in the section on Knurling. That may get you going, if not post back with specific questions. John point me to some basic

G'day Jim, et al Jim I look to your comments on the current capacities of the various control boards used in the 7x lathes. I am posting on the group because the outcome of the discussion effects

G'day Patrice, et al. I have just looked ate the "Data Base" web site; it contains excellent material. Thanks for letting it be known. One good turn deserves another. Regards, Ian wrote:

hi, I am a new "enthusiast" to the mini machine world. Can anyone point me to some basic info about how to use a knurling tool on the mini lathe? thanks, CJ

Thanks all for the replies. I am glad to know that this could help. Ian, the database (loose use of the term) is located on my personal website for ease of use. Here is the addy:

The best description I've seen for accurately drilling a deep hole was posted by Peter S in the following thread: http://bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/showthread.php?t=22874&page=2&highlight=deep+hole In

Somehow, I thought there was some significance to a hole that was just under .22! There's a bit of amateur barrel-making advice at yarchive.net/metal/barrel-drilling.html (Google "gun barrel boring"

A gun barrel is not an easy thing to drill accurately. Some rather specialized machinery is utilized. Granted yours is a short barrel but take a look around here for some ideas as to how they're made:

G'day Patrice Sounds a good idea. BUT ihave looked on the Southbend10k group and can't find the data base, where is it? One good turn deserves another. Regards, Ian wrote: messages Metalwork members.

The material is 4140 Steel, and it will go in the chuck, it would go through the spindle, but I have no way to clamp it to the face plate. This is going to be a gun barrel. It is .770" diameter and 8
