 963 forum posts 2 photos | Nice lathe the SB Heavy Ten. I have a few contacts in the US who use them for gun-smithing duties as they can fit a rifle barrel through the headstock and using an outboard spider they can cut and ream a chamber for custom rifles. Wouln't mind one. * Danny ^ |

I have the same setup as you Roger, I'm pretty sure. Yeah the later 2-tumbler box would be much easier to do.
Ooh Pete, that looks like it should do. Are you trying to encourage me? Is there a post on speed control and large dials I should be looking at?
