If anyone is interested, Homier will be in Burlington, NC Jan.30-Feb 2 at the National Guard Armory ( I think thats where.) Matt

CFSHOUSE: I have a 7x12 (old version Homier). The current Homier and Grizzly are pretty much the same unit. Several of us with this lathe have recently bought a 5" 3 jaw chuck from J&L Industrial, on

Hi, I am debating on which lathe to buy the 7x12 or 9x20 and was wondering what the largest cap. that a 4 jaw chuck will hold in either of these 2 lathes? I think that the 7x will be large enough

Very nice, John. I love the camlock tailstock - it's a huge timesaver and just a lot more pleasant to work with than the wrench & nut arrangement. I checked out your website & noticed the info on

Hi Frank, Thanks for the comment. Sorry I wasn't clear about the handle location. I did put the handle in the position shown on your site - it seems more convenient there - but used Rick's mechanism

As long as it is one of the new Homiers with 6 holes in the spindle it is a direct fit. Some of the early Homiers only have 3 holes in the spindle.

Should fit just fine, they're essentially the same machine with a different paint job. If your Homier doesn't have 6 holes in the spindle, you'll have to drill them - the HF 4-jaw chuck mounts with 4

Does anyone know if the 4-jaw chuck from HF..priced at $49.99... fits the Speedway 7x12 from Homier? Believe it or not, the local HF store has them...yes them, several in stock! And the faceplate.

I recommend learning to grind your own tools. You will find that you can grind many specially shaped tools to solve all kinds of problems. It's not hard - just buy about 20 blanks and dive in. Here

Here's an alternative design. Main advantage is that the lever is out of the way of the compound. http://www.mini-lathe.com/Mini_lathe/Modifications/Camlock_tailstock/Camlock.htm Frank Hoose

The Homier is a good choice. The Micro-Mark 7x14 has some extra features that are nice, but costs a few hundred $ more. Frank Hoose http://www.mini-lathe.com --- "jackasspkd <leguess1@...>"

Hi everyone. I am a new member and this is my first posting on this site. I have been bitten by the lathe bug and Im thinking of buying a Homier (Speedway) 7X12. I figure since most of you do mods and

Hi Matt, I'm new to lathes too so this may be a case of the blind leading the blind, but as a first project I built Rick Kruger's tailstock camlock, see:

Matt, I pretty much bought all of the accessories that HF sells for my little lathe. Which is only five or six items. I may buy a quick change head in the near future, but some things I actually

Matt, Looks like you will soon have the first one, a tailstock drill chuck. What to get next depends on what sort of work you are undertaking, I would consider a faceplate or steadyrest. Craig

Hi Matt, What do you intend to do with your lathe? Although it is impractical to run out and buy tooling only when you find that you need it, until you actually plan a project or job, you could be

What are the first two accessories I should get now that I have a lathe. I'm on a quest today. Off to see the wizard...no , off to find a mt2 arbor for a Jacobs chuck. Matt, kf4zgz
