Thread: Chester DB8V lathe
06/10/2010 19:56:45
Thank you for your reply Gordon. I wasn't aware that the DB8V was available as a belt drive machine, the Chester website only lists the variable speed version. I would much prefer the torque of a belt drive if it's still available.

 Has anyone had experience of Chester’s DB8V lathe? Many people have told me not to go for a far eastern machine, but to buy a second hand Myford. However, I am very restricted on the amount of space available and a Super 7 or ML7 would be just too long. The DB8V would fit in about right. I have just sold my Hobbymatt, as after years of trying, I could never get it to turn parallel and need to swing slightly larger work.

 

Any comments would be gratefully received.

 

Regards

Geoff

 

Thread: Fareham Electric day
02/09/2010 07:47:12

At the beginning of the season I was told of the Fareham Electric day on Sunday 5th September. This date is very close now, but I've seen absolutely no mention of the event. As Fareham is quite a drive for me I would like some kind of confirmation that the event is still on. Fareham SME don't seem to have a website and I can find no contact details for them. Can anyone confirm that I have the correct date please.

Best regards

Geoff
