For Sale / Wanted / Woodturning equipment for sale
« Last post by RichardP on May 01, 2024, 09:46:24 AM »
I need to sell my father's woodturning equipment which has not been used for about 7 or 8 years. I have attached photos of the following items: 1  Record Power RPLB 24-48 Lathe Stand; 1 Record Power CL3 36 X 30 Lathe; 1 Clarke Metalworker Bench Grinder - Model No. CBG6RC; 1 Record Power Bench Grinder - Model No. SM155; 1  Woodster 2 Bandsaw Model No. BS412 with attached vacuum.
I would prefer to sell these items as a job lot but would consider selling individual items. They would need to be collected from Broadstairs, Kent. Any offers considered, please contact me to discuss. Many thanks.

I also have woodturning tools for sale and will post separately about these.

Good luck with the demo and safe travels. It's a bit far for me so I won't be there!
I watched your video a few days ago, I might have a go at that some time :)

Tool tips & reviews / Re: Nelson Chisels

They are a fairly standard cheap set of tools but will get you started in fact some of them you will not get round to replacing for 20 years or so.

The angle will be whatever you like to use but as a starting point

Left to right right 45° 45° 25° 25° 80° not sure, hate these and don't use them. 25° 45°

My preference

45° 50° 15° 15° Neg rake 60/20, in the bin, 25° 45°

Did you find a manual for the Euro 2000? I also have a lathe without a manual.

Hi everyone, not been on here for ages but just managed to set up my new lathe and was wondering if you could help.

Wife bought me a set of Nielsen gouges as a present but I can't seem to find a guide on sharpening angles/jigs or the like. They're not the same angles or shape as others on the market so wanted to know if you guys had any ideas?

I'll add a link so you can see what I'm on about.

Cheers, Gav.

General Discussion / Re: Advise re Dust Extraction
« Last post by Bill21 on April 20, 2024, 02:59:00 PM »
I’ve got an AC400. As I extract dust with a shop vac next to the lathe, I mounted the AC400 above me so that it blows clean air past my head. The controls are therefore easily reached. Just as well as the remote stopped working outside of the warranty.  ::)

if you do get the AC400, the remote control has a fairly short range and needs to be pointed directly at the sensor, I had to re-think where to hang the machine

I use the Jet slightly bigger version air filter basically works the same way but the intake is obviously the end I want towards my work area and the remote works to the other end.

To solve this I bought an infra red repeater, now I can turn it on and off from the lathe,  not this one I have had it years but this sort of thing... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/195434883331
