Re: Rustoleum Green Hammered
I am in - One can. Thank you for doing this.

?Do we prefer a can that is smaller then a standard size can of rustoleum??
You mean 1 qt cans?
Pre C-19, if my memory is intact, I went to my local store and they indicated they would custom mix the color for me.?

I can go back to Sherwin Williams and ask again.? Who wants a small can of custom colored Unimat green with hammered paint in a spray can?? I won't upcharge, only actual charge for paint, with posted copy of the invoice and actual shipping.? You pay before I ship.? I have 3 locations in my neighboring city, surely one of them will mix this for us.? I don't know how much it will cost, but I would expect it cost $10 to ship ground, as I don't think I can mail a spray can via US Mail, if I can the shipping might be less.? ?Do we prefer a can that is smaller then a standard size can of rustoleum??
Please respond by Friday, March 17, 2023 by 11:59 pm, EST and I will attempt to go to one of the stores on Saturday and make an inquiry.? It makes more sense to go and request a larger order, then me going in and requesting 1 can... eh???

Re: brazing broken teeth of 3-jaw chuck
Glad to hear that you liked the emcounimat.nl site, Nic. One more option is to search marktplaats.nl for unimats - currently there are at least 1 SL, an Unimat 3, Unimat 5 and even an unimat 8 if I'm not mistaken. Many at quite reasonable prices.

Thanks everyone for the help!
As soon as the wind drops a bit outside, I try brazing. Having the other chuck I will use this one for less stressful applications.
I live in Italy, unfortunately the ebay seller of the jaw set does not ship outside the USA.
I also thank Herman for the link to the Dutch site, it has so many things for human prices! I will buy something from there for sure.

Re: Baseline / empirical testing Unimat 3 lathes and milling attachments
Hi Paul, thanks for the reply.? I'm just going to be turning small components, not clock making, so as you say I probably don't need to worry too much :-)
The query was also really about how I can decide which set to keep and which to sell (which is the better in other words). Maybe they will be just the same, in which case it would be down to cosmetics.
I forgot to mention that I'll be fitting 24v variable speed motors, so the existing morors don't come into it.
Cheers,
Peter

Re: brazing broken teeth of 3-jaw chuck
it would seem that the jaws are hardened, so the act of brazing would soften them, so you might be able to soften them and drill tap and insert screws to replace the tooth, then file the tooth to shape and then reharden the jaw.

Did they provide the mix code for the paint on the container? If so, can you provide it here?

It's a great book! I'm going to have to scan parts of it, as I owe my copy to the guy who traded his Unimat for my 7x10 mini- lathe. Dug it and the notebook I put together myself out of the shop a couple of days ago.
?He said he really didn't need them, but I think I owe him. He gave me a really good price fo my lathe.?
This is actually my 2nd copy, as I'd loaned the first one to a friend who passed away a few months later. I didn't figure his son needed even one more tiny problem to deal with. And mine don't either if something happens to me.?
One of our doctors passed away yesterday. Auto accident. Brinks truck crossed the median and hit her head on at freeway speeds. She was 42. Great person, great doctor. World was already rather short of people like that. And today it's shorter.

For $28+shipping, you can get the book they made with all Ted Hansen's 7x12 mini-lathe projects. Chapters 17, 18, and 19 are the complete dividing apparatus. You might as well get the whole book, as much of the rest of the material in the book is directly applicable to most any small lathe, and what isn't will still be adaptable... I was struck by his adaptation to turn a mini-lathe into a horizontal milling machine. I've had the book for a few years. Hadn't seen that until today. Same website as the magazines.

Re: Rustoleum Green Hammered
For all of us here, can you please provide more details.? I cannot find metallic hammered paint on the Sherwin Williams site.? Their "hammered" paint is for interiors.
If anyone wishes to search "Sherwin Williams" in our messages, you will see that we have been kicking this issue around for years.? I cannot find any specific reference to a particular SW paint.
