Re: A very different T-Nut.
Very cool. I don't think anyone I know ever thought of indexing like that on the lathe. Thanks for the idea.

Re: FS: Baldor Motor and TECO drive combo for your lathe or other machines
I'm not within pickup distance, but I am interested in doing a VFD conversion on both my lathe and mill.
I have been totally unable to find any real numbers on the useful frequency or RPM range a

No Fred. Never made it. In those days my main hobby(ies) was (were) photography and astronomy. Then the newborn ate all my money and all my time.

Re: FS: Baldor Motor and TECO drive combo for your lathe or other machines
That's why I put a Bergerda 1.8kW AC Servo on my milling machine. Cost of 2HP (1.5kW) and good VFD was way more and I shared the FedEx shipping over two motors; the other a 750W AC servo for the

Re: FS: Baldor Motor and TECO drive combo for your lathe or other machines
They look to be in good shape. My TECO is an older model of the L510, and missing the cover. It was only $50 on Ebay late 2019 or early 2020, IIRC. Pretty sure I can fold some aluminum sheet to

I lived in Basking Ridge, NJ many years ago, across the street from the AT&T headquarters (well, half mile off, anyway).
There are no advantages living therin that state. It is expensive, crowded,

Re: FS: Baldor Motor and TECO drive combo for your lathe or other machines
If you're using a Microsoft OS, you have to download the .heic stuff from the Microsoft store for $0.99. I don't need to see them that bad. A new Baldor 1/2hp motor runs around $700, TECO VFD 1/2hp,

Re: T-Nuts, the easy way
My 9C came from a used tool dealer. It had been owned by a business, not a private user and came with a hex bed turret on the bed and a double T slot cross slide. A regular tailstock was included

John,
Not sure what those .HEIC attachments are, but I could not open them. Do you have PDF or JPG versions, instead?

Re: OT, old vises ID
Try bargaining a little. You never know. Judging by the pictures, it should be OK, but nothing compares to you putting your hands on it and checking it out.

Re: Milling on the lathe w/out a milling attachment (rate my setup)
Is this the sort of arbor you'd need? See photo attached. I'm thinking that enough spacers would let you mount a cutoff wheel on something like this...?

That's a good idea. I don't have an arbor for any wheels I have, but
something I should figure out some day.

Re: Milling on the lathe w/out a milling attachment (rate my setup)
A couple for the lathe, very common sized sf endmill, like 3/8" & 1/2", and you can tackle about anything small without having to tear down a setup on your mill. A t-slotted table and an angle plate,
