Here is the first cue building lathe with my custom H-Channel with Auto Feed, Taper Bar, router and much more.
This Cue Building lathe is the reason I designed the H-channel, the deep side wall dove tail makes it really easy to attach taper bar on the back side and auto feed Acme Rod and start and stop switches.
The head stock is the tall style 0.991" higher center than the regular taig headstock. I have couple of videos that will be uploaded to You-Tube some time today. Using a regular carraige with the side by side top slides gives the end user a much bigger turning radius, thus the router and router bracket are mounted directly on top of the spring loaded slide, which provides optimum weight distrubution on the carraige, and the top slide. it allows you to mount the router vertically or horizontally.
the custom pinion gear, and lead screw housing allow to add the 4" handwheel plus provides very smooth gear/leadscrew ingagement.
The auto feed motor is a custom high torque geared head 90 RPM servo motor with a built in speed control.
the on/off and reverse switch are mounted below the leadscew, which can be positioned anywhere along the bed.(perfect for making points)
The quick change tool post is a great addition to this lathe, it comes with 4 interchangable tool holders ( boring, cut off, and 2 regular tool holder 1/4" or 3/8")
3/8" 9-pc boaring set and 3/8" 5-pc indexable carbide cutters (pricing below)
