Am I just asking more of this lathe than it can produce? It's the
12x36 Grizzly gear head model.



In addition to what the other two fellas have posted, make sure you keep
the tool tip as close to the toolpost as you can. If you have to shim the
tool up, make sure the shim (if it's thick enough to matter) goes out to
near the end of the tool, this provides more support.

You can't 'idiot proof' anything....every time you try, they just make
better idiots.
