Vibration? Okay, I'm leaning a little towards Ken's earlier comment. I thought we were discussing a Logan 200, so where does the Harley fit in?
This may be the time to look for a project manager.
You guys are my project managers! So far you guys have kept the cost below $10,000... at least as far as you know.
We are but I'm preparing for the Leblond Regal 15 x 54 I need to get back. I had one and sold it before I had time to use or learn how to use it. 10 years ago just before I moved into this house. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I sold that. I realize the project "subject" doesn't justify doing all these things to it. It's a 70 year old tiny lathe. But it's a consciousness captivity machine I'm after. It's wonderful you guys are humoring my ideas. I really do appreciate it.
No Harley to be found here. I quit riding on the street along time ago. Did I mention I sold some motorcycles when I sold that lathe? lol
Anyway, back to scraping and leveling. I watched part of a video today on calibrating levels. oxtoolsco. Very interesting that it can be done pretty much on any surface level or not. Great instruction there. The taking the twist out of the lathe makes total sense before scraping in anything. Since that would throw off any reference points you may have had.
