My Humble Shop
02/08/12 at 07:42:57

A little video for your viewing amusement...
My humble shop, only 12x8
No Band saw...yet
No Sander...yet
No Radial arm saw...yet
You get the point, everything has to be done by hand, which I am used to
The mini-lathe is a Mastercraft which rev's up to about 3700rpm without a load
It works fine for now, I do believe I will want something with more power and a longer bed eventually
You got to start somewhere

I should mention the video was taken with a HP Digital camera so the quality is not the best

It's what I have in mind when my moment arrives.

Well I'm going to have to use my imagination on this one. The video doesn't seem to exist anymore, but a cute video of a dog trying to burry fish. Sounds like the beginning of a nice small shop. And I'm very glad to see that someone else has the master craft mini lathe like me. That just made my whole day. Just make sure not to put too much tension on those plastic handles. How do you like it? I would love to hear from someone with the same lathe.
