a few questions


 

Hi gang!
I've been playing,er, working with the lathe and learning a
lot....now fer some info.

1- What type of tool is best for what job?
considerations: cost, main material is plastic (PVC), some metal
involved to keep if interesting.
is there a general purpose tool for most use?
HSS or carbide....pre-made or grind my own?

2-Is there a way to hold square or odd pieces in a 3-jaw chuck?

3- Is there a good book to learn these things from...i.e. 'Metal
Lathes for dummies"

4- Suggestion for a good 1st time real project, thats easy!

Thanks , Matt
