Update on various subject
A couple of weeks ago, I asked if any of you could reccommend a tube
bender for a project I have been working on. I think it was Paul that suggested Wagner in Milwaukee. Well, I picked up the bent tube yesterday and they did a nice job. My cost was about $400USD for 15 pcs (2 bends each). Not to bad, and I will be able to polish,do my magic and ship on Friday. Right on time!!! Thanks to all who made suggestions Next. I posted a couple of months ago about my little Atlas/Craftsman lathe that my FIL gave me. I've been playing with it and I discovered that I have a runout of about .008-.009" with the chuck on. At the spindle I have about .0005" (1/2 a thoushandth) at the spindle. It first, I thought that I might have bad bearings on the spindle, but .0005" seems pretty good, so most of the runout must be in the 3 jaw. Any suggestions to get rid of the runout? Greg |
