Hi,
I would have thought this asked many times but the search was unrewarding.

I have a couple of mid sized Eucalypts down on my property in North Warrandyte that I would like to mill for timber....

That is what I thought. From reading other posts, this setup was an option on this lathe... I guess that I got lucky. Now all I need is a chuck for the tailstock (Hare & Forbes are having a sale this...

Thinking again, it looks like the situation with the gears is more complex. Simply reversing the gear and taking up the slack would do exactly nothing since it is just transferring power from the...

So my lathe is like your lathe's older brother with 153 siblings between them :-)

Ahah! Victory!

I finally found the poorly stamped serial and date of manufacture. Looks like the serial number is 250 and the date stamped is something like 8 20 41
...

True, but there look to be a number of bolts missing from the lathe and it would help to know that this is not intentional. Perhaps I should just tear it down and figure it out myself. Then again,...

Hmmm, that's the thing, I have looked all over the bed and headstock and still can find no numbers or dates. Oh well, hopefully someone else with one of these can tell me exactly where I should be...

I won that lathe... it is awesome! I have started a new thread on the site asking for anyone who might know anything about manuals and so on. I can't believe that the thing has no sort of identifying...

Does anyone...

Thanks, sounds like good advice. Unfortunately this is a computer desk and 700mm does not give enough clearance for the keyboard with a 19" monitor. Still, work thinkning about for other benches!

Dandenong.. That's the one!

Just got the quote with a rolled edge. $1640 for my benchtop! Ouch! I oculd make it out of hardwood for that much! I think that I will go back to painting or...

Personally I don't think that Triton will ever offer stuff direct over the web. The last thing that a company in their position would do is upset their channel. It is impossible to mix a...

Thanks for the info. I have put in a request with a local company to make me a laminate bench Plyboard Distributors in Ferntree Gully.

I guess that can bring me to another question. Can anyone...

Ironically I bought a new house that I moved into last weekend. A few weeks before I moved in I found out that this new house is about 800m from the Triton factory.

I have since bought about $1500...

Hi,

I am making a built in study desk with a 32mm MDF top. I need to paint it with a finish that is going to be suitably durable for office use. I am guessing that some sort of 2-pack polyurethane...
