Jimbo Don't forget thateven a factory new lathe needs to be "leveled" to prevent bed twist and resultant inaccuracy/taper/etc. That's a precision machine and deserves to set-up correctly for best results John

That's a nice looking lathe; congratulations on your purchase! Two things you might want to do. First , give yourself more room to the left of that head stock bore. The second thing is buy or borrow a high precision machinist level to level your lathe before the bed begins to take on the contour of your garage floor.

Lathes are great tools, you should get a quick change tool post setup. They make tool changes and setting up new tools a breeze. Even the chinese tool posts work great, and they are very affordable.

Hey Jim that’s a nice size lathe , you will be able to do a wide range of projects, you do a lot of rearranging and working in your garage you might want to think about getting a set of machinery skates once you have them you will use them to move all sorts of things a round the shop . The older we get we have to work smarter.

Sweet score on the new machine! Looks like its cutting good. FYI< you may already know this, but if you are not able to break the chip, and yoru getting long stringy ones, you can bump your feed rate up one notch (faster feed) to get it to break the chip.

Congrats on the lathe - looks great, man. I'm in the process of packing and moving my shop and home from Vegas to Ohio, and then eventually Tennessee. I have a 13x30 gear head lathe and wanted to see how yours came from the factory. Bought a 53' dry van trailer and a 3k forklift for the move. The forklift is great - you will find so many uses for it, if you get one.

"$8000... a big expense for me..." Fell outta the chair on that one. You own a construction company and have a shop on the $1M+ residence. A little honesty goes a long way and the lathe along with pretty much every tool in Jimbo's Garage is more than likely a tax write-off. Came across your channel while searching for a new 13x40 or 14X40 lathe for our shop and trying to get some honest real world insight on all of the different makes coming out of China these days so in case you're wondering, that's how we wound up here.
@cuskit2 жыл бұрын
Do you really understand what a 'tax write-off' is? I love how the lay person always thinks big shops get machinery free because of tax write-off. Yes, you reduce your tax bill, but for sure the machinery is never free! Kudos Jim on a great lathe! Still hoping to see some nice videos on that.

I know this video is about a year old but I hope he didn't just leave it sitting on the concrete just like it is? As you are meant to make adjuustable hight feet (x6) for the lathe to sit on. As it needs to be leveled and checked it doesn't have any twist to it? As concrete floors are never level or flat. As if you don't do the leveling , the lathe won't machine correctly! 🤔
