    Tip lathe

    Optimum, they are a bit better made than most. I ended up converting to CNC then I sold it and got a bigger one!

    Kielwood supplier

    Could anyone please give me a lead for a supplier of Kielwood shaft wood in the USA? I have had an order from Canada stuck for 4 months in a mail strike and I am now right out. I'm located in Australia and mail takes a while to get here anyway but tracking says it hasn't even left yet!

    I’m recently ordered a custom Kielwood shaft and have some questions about my customization options and how each will affect the playability.

    Cue Cut Help

    For cuecut, the center of the spindle must be in the center of the workpiece, then the correct diameter cutter must be selected. Either the zero is wrong, or the wrong cutter size.

    Tailstock Chucks - how to identify / pick the better one

Adjust the plunger until it hits a rod chucked in the tailstock chuck and slowly spin by hand, keep your fingers away from the on switch! Bear in mind that this will also tell you if your...

    CNC cutting inlay trouble

    Thanks Gary, appreciate the reply. I’m running the spindle at 30,000 rpm and the cutters are endmills mounted in a precision collet. I did not consider runout so will check that tomorrow.
