New tooling for an old lathe
I recently scored a decent SB heavy 10, complete but no tooling. I'm
probably going to spring for a reasonable set of used stuff, maybe a
KRF omnipost as well. On a couple occasions I've read of new chucks
being trued on the lathe on which they'll be used, I was wondering at
what skill levels or for which applications the need for chucks set up
like that starts to become apparent.
Also, if anyone has hints/tricks that might be of help while I'm
cleaning off the crud and tightening it up, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Gregm
