I think you might be misunderstanding my point.? The group name IS correct for what the marketplace overwhelmingly uses the term "mini lathe" for the.7xWhatever Chinese lathes whether Harbor Freight

??? so we should change the group name ? ??? ??? animal

I don't consider the "mini lathe" remotely derivative from any typical watchmakers lathe. Other than the aspect of "small", they are completely different.? The mini lathe is an "engine lathe" and is

They look like a mini Monarch 10ee . I think if ya want to get to the evolution of the " mini lathe " that ya need to be having a conversation about the Loarch , Levin & other watch makers/jewelry

Craftsman sold 2 different lathes that would fall into the class as these 7" lathes . I have had a couple , ( though missing a tailstock for one ) for several years now & so far they only occupy shelf

I think with a gap bed on one of these lathes that ya would be givin up most of the rigidity that ya have . ??? animal

I agree. I would think in time we will see more stepper motors use for power feed on mini lathes syncing to spindle. The tech is here but just takes time. Right now a DC drive on a lathe , works

Good video, as usual.? Yes, as he said those are quite collectible now and fetch a lot of money, I acquired a MasterSon incarnation one in about 1964 from a friend, actually used it to make some

Don't forget that you are also competing against all the now-affordable CNC tools now available. That is what most people under some age would want. So try selling locally, then if that does not

iFixit is the best DIY electronics repair site ever. I’ve repaired tons of stuff with their guides and their tools. And sadly you’re right about some of the commenters :-(

Dear Mike, Thank you (for lots of us, I’m sure) for an interesting and informative article. I didn’t know iFixit existed. David

I've fixed a few phones over the years, the newer ones definately require more patience to get them apart. iFixit generally do a good job with their guides, if you fall following those then repair

The heat guns I use for electronics? / adhesive release are temperature adjustable from 120F to 1150F.? I also use a 3/8" reduction nozzle.

Just ace repairman like this guy for Apple products. Dave
