    Mini lathe (and mill) discussion.

    Just married a 4" Little Machine Shop adapter to a $37 Amazon ER32 collet holder. The old ER32 collet holder was a JT3 taper mount that did not allow for through hole work so I always wasted a little stock when I used it. This was much more work than I had hoped for. My spindle mount is a 39...

    Scale BUSA Super Cub

    The remote switch arrived a few days ago. Looks nice, haven't powered it yet. Might try it out in the Champ! It is fail safe in that you need to push the A button then the B within 2 seconds to turn is on. C and D buttons turn it off in the same manner.
