Surely there are radio supply stores in Australia? I know it's vast & populated mostly around the edges, but I would think that asking around would turn up a solution. Mert

Yep, & we'll need telepathic powers to figure out what. Mert

Swapping switches is a simple soldering job if you know how to work on circuit boards. The TS camlocks I made for my 7x lathes work very well, and I'm sure the LMS ones will, too. LMS is a very

board.I Just unsolder the old one from the board, Jaycar etc will sell you a new resistor (5W IIRC) for under 50 cents. Jaycar won't have the 0.025 ohm one, 0.022 will be their closest (5% tolerance).

I was lucky that way, having taken Machine tool Lab at tufts in order to avoid flunking Math 2, and the first thing taught there was "How to grind your own lathe toolbits." We were all given a #" long

I'm reasonably familiar with KB's website, Den, having used it to find UK distributors. If all else fails, you could make one up yourself. Ceramic cased, 0.1 ohm 10 watt wirewound resistors seem

That was quick. Thanks for your effort, I will ring them in ?the morning. Cheers

I am trying to by a .025 plugin horsepower resistor for a KBCL-240D board.I found some on US ebay for $5 but postage to Australia is $26. Is there some place that sells these with reasonable postage

The SIEG and I believe the Real Bull 7x machines, with their default 20/80/20/80 (A, B, C, D) fine feed gears installed, works out to a whopping 256-tpi for power feed. This is all assuming a U.S

Can't help with the switch but might help with the tailstock. I did not use a camlock, instead I made another nut higher than the original and drilled and tapped in several places for a lever handle.

When ever possible use the power feed and make sure the cutter is ground sharp and the leading edge honed.Take a stone,diamond stick or whatever use use for honing and round the sharp point you ground

HI All! I've been making some parts lately and have had some luck selling them as well. Enough to buy some new hop-ups for my 7x12 Cummings lathe :-) My F/O/R switch is acting up, and I'm thinking

I second the QCTP setup.... I got one last year and I honestly don't know what I'd be doing without it right now.... Sent: Saturday, February 02, 2013 8:42 PM To: 7x12minilathe@...

I sometimes hold the wheel with both hands!

With a QCTP holder, I took a piece of 5/16" keystock and milled an 1/8" groove: http://home.comcast.net/~ajawam3/swarf/DSCN2739.JPG After I did that, I saw on one of my favorite sites the guy did a

Something is loose.

All the brazed carbide cutters ,need to be sharpened before using. you will not regret buyIng a QCTP. Buy some decent USA made HSS tool bits,and grind them yourself. You can have any shape you want.

Most of the cheap brazed carbide stuff is junk! It's frequently salvageable with a little grinding to improve the relief angles. Still, it'll have a 0° rake angle, so, it plows rather than cuts. The
