Thank you for adding me to the group

I agree with Carl, a foot switch can be a option for a Unimat. I've been using momentary foot switches almost exclusively on my Unimats and several other tools that benefit from "hands-off" power

Hi Gang: I used a foot control from a sewing machine for a while. It was great for polishing. Carl.

I was surprised at him using that switch. It really is no different from using one on a full size lathe, IMO. I do enjoy watching him, he makes me smile. But, I’ll use a regular switch.

I enjoyed watching that video. I've watched others of his before. Always fun. Mr. Pete mentioned that he attached a foot switch to the Unimat. I agree with him that reaching over the lathe for the

My friend, the late Lee Snover, operated a model train business for years.? He had an idea to make very small brass hex head screws(0.8mm x1mm hex, 4mm long and 1mm x1.4mm hex, 4mm long).? He could

I have a die holder for the Unimat, goes on the tailstock instead of a chuck.

I've always used the tailstock ram against the die when threading, even on a Unimat, never thought of using the toolpost to keep the die square. On a full sized lathe (when I wasn't screwcutting) I

That making screw videos was helpful... I do want to make my 1/12th miniature Jorgensen screws for wood working - just because.? I liked the stationary position of the die and moving the headstock to

Not sure why that comes up. It’s called “Making tiny screws on a Unimat lathe #942 tubalcain” https://youtu.be/JoqBSot0zro?si=RPNO6enbcdx-JdRQ

I only have 2 (or 3?) visors. Thanks for the reminders of the books. This triggered searches and finding… the Stuart S50 engine series. Hmmm, I think I have an S50 kit with boiler(?) out in storage.

Good afternoon, I bought them from "gadgetskingdom", reference 201177. This is on UK Ebay. The parts have a UPC reference of 746453424412. They work perfectly for me but I take no responsibility for

Three Optivisors in the house; one in the basement workshop, one in the basement spin-casting area, and one at my office desk for when I'm fiddling with stuff there.? Occasionally I walk around the

I know where mine is, on the dining table! Its milling .6mm slots in the end of brass bar where things get a touch tricky. Paul B.

Everybody needs to use an optivisor in order to find the lathe ??? Best Regards, Andrei mailto:calciu1@... ________________________________ Sent: Wednesday, April 3, 2024 10:47 AM To:

oops... I attended a few local auctions.... not options. Tamra

Nice to note that I'm not the only Unimat user who wears an Optivisor whilst machining! Paul B.

Me thinks a bridgeport mill to make a milling table for a unimat isn't in my future... but I enjoyed watching it last night.? I have attended a few local options, and it isn't a price issue as much

Just sprained my wrist again buying the 1st copy of "Hey Tim, I Gotta Tell Ya" I've seen in several years. Even in the stories he writes, he puts shop hints and tips...? I am not an addict! I can
