Hi Bill, thanks for the information. Yes, it's the same bolt, unfortunately for me 2 are required. I'll look on Amazon Canada for the set. Thanks again Cheers SL [email protected]> wrote:

Isn't that the same part that holds the headstock in the lathe body? Look on the far left end of your lathe, and you should have it. See the attached photos.? If not, it's an M12-1 metric thread.

Thanks Mehmood, I'll look in Canada to see if I can locate one. Cheers SL [email protected]> wrote:

Actually, thinking about it, you need the same bolt for the headstock casting to lock in the base. If you already have that, it's the same bolt.

This one? eBay item number: 115251100299 GBP 8.00 plus postage. Or an M12x1 die? https://www.rdgtools.co.uk/acatalog/12MM-X-1-SPLIT-DIE--CARBON--537fine.html (29 pence more, but you can make as many

Hello: Granted. But this is not the case and I don't think it will be. I hope to use it often and well. In case I have to store the U3 temporarily, the plastic box in one of my posts should do well

WD-40 it self won't work well for long-term storage. Looks like you're pretty close to the water there, so I'd expect you have pretty high humidity most of the time. They do make a rust preventative,

Hello: Thanks for the heads up. The rust remover I use is a water based phosphor acid remover like Boeshield Rust Free. I have gone ahead with my experiment and it seems to work but only time will

Hello: Far too much and not enough counter space. Bench grinder, drill press, angle grinder, 2x dremels, MAPP torch, bottled gas jewellers torch, portable welding machine, etc. Chinese BG rescued from

What do you have in the way of shop equipment other than your Unimat? What do you have in the way of materials to work with?? If you have a hacksaw, some files and a caliper you can make stuff you

Hello: Yes !? 8^D I have been thinking about that quite a bit. Yes. I like that idea, but my wallet is still complaining about my Unimat spending spree. And I still have to get myself some decent

Hello: Yes, I've seen them on the web while searching for a solution to this. There was a listing on the German ebay for €79+ €10 shiping,? no idea of the date. These days they go for ~

I've fitted re-settable handwheels to my U3 - and wouldn't be without them. Far easier to use than the supplied ones. Some will scoff as they're plastic but I've had no problems.See here. | | | | | |

You have a lathe now. My suggestion is to make your own hand wheels to suit you and the way you work. You can also get digital linear travel scales that will read in metric and imperial. Dick
