This item has been SOLD. Thanks for looking.

I have a Tough lathe in excellent condition for sale. It was fully reconditioned in 2012 and has had very little use since.

It comes complete with riser blocks on the head and tail stock (for...

Once the body is completed, are you able to remove the face plate(s) of the amp in order to apply the finish to the uke?

Great work as always.:)

I'm In

Great to see it finished Cal, I am envious. What did you use to finish the timber?

Shame, if you were on the Mornington Peninsula I'd have it in my car by now:(

I'm in.

Having built 1.5 ukes to date I am far from an expert in the matter so please feel free to correct me if I am on the wrong tram here.

I would have thought it easier to set the saddle in the bridge...

We haven't heard anything for a few days Cal. I'm a bit worried about that saddle slot :oo:

I didn't want to rain on your parade, I'll post the build under a different thread.

In the second build I'm putting new skills to work and improving on them but also NOT making the same mistakes...

Hi Cal
I've just finished my very first Uke build, a Tenor. Next build will be a concert, so more jigs to make :).

I find your thread inspiring and giving me more ideas to incorporate in the...

Thanks to those who showed interest in this. The lathe has now been sold.

Yes I bought some too and he was calling it Queen Ebony.

Bump ~ The tool rest alone are worth more than the asking price.

I have replied to your message but I am getting a reply saying it can't be delivered until you empty your in-box.

Yes, there is a bit of interest going on at the moment but as we speak it is available.

Woodworkers of the Southern Peninsula are replacing their lathes. Here is the third and final lathe that we are offering, another Tough lathe.

Magnificent! What type of hinge did you use?

I'm reasonably new to routing and have the TRA001 table mounted.

Today whilst half way through a job I noticed the bit was shifting upwards in the Collet. On investigation I found that the...

I fear it may be too late. In my experience, albeit limited, I find that the timber has to be perfectly parallel before you start.

Good choice. I got one just before Christmas, it works well and easy to install.

Thanks Rod ~ Looking really good so far.

I see there is a gap between the side rails and the top. How will the top be fastened to the frame?

Following this with great interest. I recently scored a (almost brand new) 52 1/2 Record vice with quick release, which I am thrilled with. The only trouble now is that I have to upgrade my bench...

Thanks Mobyturns. The frame it's on has a fairly wide footprint as it is ~ much wider than the bed itself. Also I would normally only be moving it a foot or two, just enough to clean around and...

Thanks Bohdan ~ that's exactly what I was thinking of. It wouldn't effect the height of the stand either.

Hi Guys

I have a good old Tough lathe mounted on a heavy wooden frame. Each time I need to move it I almost blow a gasket. :oo:

I'm thinking about installing a set of industrial castors with...

What about a strap hinge where the knuckle of the hinge would be set just to the rear of the leg?

I have been using this model for about 12 months and so far it has done everything I have asked of it.

My one concern about this is the replacement blades. The arbour on it is 25.4mm, when...

I Have the Bosh GTS 10 J which came with a stand. I have been using it now for about 12 months without a problem, a great saw for the money. I didn't get it from Sydney Tools, but here's a link to...

Hi Rod ~ Stunning box. If it were mine I would shape the bottom. It adds a bit of shadow to the base without adding height.

I needed some recently for a project, I just turned them on my lathe.

I had one of the Schppachs for a short time and found a couple of niggling issues with it. The spindle lock was difficult to engage and the motor lift/lower mechanism wasn't the most accurate. I...

Thanks for that, your comments confirm what I suspected. :2tsup:

Hi all

I have a Triton (TRA 001) mounted under a table, I have removed the plunge spring. I am curious, should I be using the plunge lock lever to ensure consistent cutting height?

Although I...

:whs:

Hi David

I have the TRA001 mounted on the Kreg plate which is pre drilled for the Triton router. You do not need the lifter! The clutch winder is easily operated and the micro adjuster can be...
