I just bought a second hand lathe. it has a dynalink sticker onit but looks exactly the same as the $99 gmc one at bunnings
I made a very simple stand for it, out of some old 50 * 200 hardwood i had lying around
I had a play the other day but when i wanted to remove the chuck to bolt on the face plate I couldnt get it off?
is it normal thread or lefthand thread? ( I didnt want to butcher it trying to get it off)
I bought some $30 lathe chisels from mitre 10 but after one use I cracked the gouge so took them back.
what is a good brand of chisel?
and is there anywhere on the northern rivers nsw (I'm in casino) where i can get them?
other that travelling to carbatec in brisbane?
