Second Lathe Project finished today

[sn8kboy]

I just finished my second lathe project today. It is a tap guide for the lathe tail stock or for the milling machine quill. I used cheap 1/2 hot rolled steel from home depot which is not the best steel in the world to make parts out of but it worked. I am going to have to find a spring to fit in the bottom but that should not be too hard.

Good job! Those are some mighty good looking threads there.


Cutting oil is my blood.
