Hi,
Have any of the PM-1236 metric lathe recipients received their metric to imperial conversion kits and done the conversion? Anyone know when they will be available, it's been months now.

i would like to see the conversion myself and then reverse it.
i have an imperial i would like to make metric.

I called PM to ask how I can arrange to order a metric lathe, and apparently the only way to do it cheaply is to get one by mistake.

I guess the DRO is mandatory if you work in the 21st century.
 
If you both want what the other has, why not trade the parts in question?
 
The parts for the conversion arrived several weeks ago. They are in Matts warehouse in PA. Before he sends them out, he needs to do a test run on a machine and create an instruction sheet for installation. If you've been following the PM saga, you're aware that he got hit with the perfect storm (5 orders arrived in one month) and just this week, he's finishing-up the last folks who were on back-order. I cannot say when those kits will go out but I'm guessing very soon...
