Thread: Help with lathe speed
21/11/2020 00:13:56

I am in the middle of restoring my Drummond b lathe and I was wondering if you can have a speed controller on a 240volt single phase ac motor at all as I use to use a cj18a mini lathe and you could control the speed on that one

thank you in advance

I have bought a project Drummond b lathe and I was wondering if anyone has any pictures or advice to connect the motor to it. I know I will have to make a metal frame just after some guidance please if anyone can. I’m a long way off putting the motor on as I will be doing a full strip repaint and rebuild on this

Thank you in advance

Hi all I am making an end silencer for an air rifle and I have joined the 2 pieces of metal together the top piece is steel and the bottom piece is aluminium. It has bolts securing it but I was wondering is there anything that’s like a mastic or filler that I could run a small bead of it along either side so that the screws in between can not be seen

It just so happens in the bag I picked up is the badger 200 and also a badger 250 but the metal end is rusty on the badger 250 so will have to replace that.

Hi all I am looking for a airbrush is there a entry model or a decent one that I could get I have a compressor already but need the rest. If anyone could advise me that would be great. I will be using it to spray models, air rifles and probably everything in the house once I get going.

Thread: Mini lathe amadeal cj18a help needed
15/01/2020 20:54:18

As you say I have always had good correspondence from them and I received a reply today they are sending me the part out free so a good service from these yet again I would buy from them again. Saying that I keep buying other parts for the lathe cutters threaders etc so without a doubt a good company to deal with

thank you everyone

Thread: Mini lathe amadeal cj18a help needed
14/01/2020 13:57:34

Hi I’m a beginner but all I was doing was reducing the size of a piece of delrin rod by doing 1-2mm off at a time and all of a sudden it stopped I am presuming it was the same thing happening again I will check it later on again. The lathe has only been used a few times for light work that is why I can not understand why it has done this. I got 2 off the plastic bits when I ordered one last time so if it is that again I will replace and see if it does it again. I have emailed amadeal when it first happened and got no reply and I have emailed again last night so see if they reply when I was looking to buy it they where very responsive with messages I just hope they get back to me now

thank you for your reply
