Machinist Jacks

The lathe is mostly unimportant. A south bend or logan of 9" or more could have done that work.
A monarch or sheldon..
it doesn't matter, what does matter is his attention to detail, and hitting his marks.

edit: Oh, and the Vanilla Cream helped too.
 
What kind of lathe does OP have?


Impressive what lathe did you use?
Hi Unix,
Thank you for looking and commenting. The lathe I'm using is a Precision Matthews PM-1340GT, but as Woodchucker pointed out below, this can really be done with any decent lathe.

Thanks Woodchucker,
And yes, that Vanilla Cream soda is the "bee's knees"!
 
Your workman ship is amazing. Very beautiful. I use 1/2-13 coupling nuts with 3" or 4" bolts that have the surface ground flat. Seems to work for me but I am not the craftsman you are.

Thanks very much,
It's nothing compared to some other machinist's projects here on the forum, but thank you very much for the kind comments. I truly appreciate your support.
