    Looking for stock tube material for lathe work. 1" OD - 3/16" ID - SS, Delrin, anything?

    Micromark 7x16 lathe is really the best one out there. You have to take reviews with a grain of salt for hobby lathes. A lot of guys will post bad stuff about something they have no idea how to operate correctly. I went to machinist school way back in my younger days. It is not too difficult to...

    Not sure where you are at but Little machine shop wanted 175 bucks freight It was 5 bucks cheaper to get the micro mark since it is $65 freight The ebay lathe is also a C2 it is not the SC2. To cut your stock into 4 inch pieces you going to need a metal cutting chop saw also. Or a horizontal...

    The Grizzly is a C2 design not a SC2. It is the same as the harbor freight 7X12 With 20% off the HF 7x12 it would be cheaper. It is not that the 7X10 sucks it is a good lathe. It is the fact that the work space is very limited. You can work on 4" long stock with it , That needs to be drilled...

    Doubtful but it might be worth a look on CraigsList for a used 7x10 i got mine for 250 slightly used. You can also find some deals on drill presses from time to time. I got this drill press here for 40 bucks because it had fallen over and bent the three pull handles Amazon.com: JET...

    Problem with using the 20% coupon is It cant be used with items already on sale the $499 is a sale price. http://www.harborfreight.com/7-inch-x-10-inch-precision-mini-lathe-93212.html But i have had the cashier mess up and give me a 20% off a sale item before. So it might work for you. I guess...

    The ones on Ebay are of the C2 design , They used to only come in 250 and 350 watt motors 商品展示 The micromark and little machine shop lathes are the SC2 design and come with the brushless 500 watt motors. My best guesses are they have switched over to putting brushless motors in the C2...

    The 7x machines all will take the same tooling. This company here商品展示 makes almost all the lathes sent here to the US. The USA Companies that import them get them made to their specifications. So might have different motors color bed lengths and so on. So pretty much all 7x? tooling...

    the harbor freight 7x10 is on sale already for $499 reg price is $599. They are not supposed to give you the 20% off on sale items but sometimes you can get away with it. just about all the 7x 10 , 12 , 14 , 16 sold here in the USA are made but the same china company SIEG. That 550watt looks...

    Looking for stock tube material for lathe work. 1" OD - 3/16" ID - SS, Delrin, anything?

    it will still be hard to work on stuff 4" long 7x10 lathe , Really they are 7X8 lathes 12 inch and 14 beds they sell are 4 inches and 6 inches longer then the 7x10 (8). You can do 4 inch work pieces on a 7x10 but it will be cramped. Only reason i got my 7x10 is because i picked it up slightly...

    Looking for stock tube material for lathe work. 1" OD - 3/16" ID - SS, Delrin, anything?

    you should be ok with the 7x10 for that short of pieces. You might need to remove the tail stock from the machine for room at times thats what i used to do. You bigger drill bits will be harder to use because they are longer. Might need stubby drill bits for bigger sizes. I ended up getting this...

    Looking for stock tube material for lathe work. 1" OD - 3/16" ID - SS, Delrin, anything?

    Thats a ok starter kit in my opinion. Only thing i don't like about it is the quick change stuff is made out of aluminum. I went with a quick change made out of steel. If you plan on cutting stainless steel you really going to have to upgrade some of that tooling a bit. The parting tool is HSS...

    Looking for stock tube material for lathe work. 1" OD - 3/16" ID - SS, Delrin, anything?

    Most lathe will come with a spinning center in the tail stock. they are used for working on long work peices to keep them centered. A drill chuck with the right taper usually has to be bought extra, but really is a necessity. no lathe should be without. Here is a pic of my lathe you can see the...

    Get you a Drill chuck for the tail stock and drill what ever size hole you need. Starting the holes with a center drill is advised. If your going to work with stainless steel you going to have to get cobalt drill bits or you will wear out regular HSS or titanium coated ones like crazy. Tail...

    Which iast longer?

    The difference between 16.3 watt hours and 24.4 watt hours is 33% or 1/3. So a S3 11.1 volts pack will give you around 33% longer run time then a a 7.4 volt S2 pack, bucked down to the same output voltage.

    Which iast longer?

    It actually doesnt work as hard stepping down from a higher voltage using a switching regulator. IF you hooked a Amp meter up to the input side of the regulator you would see it would be using less amps bucking down at 11.1 volts and more amps at 7.4 volts. So in the case of bucking down to a...
