This is such a good mod. Back in 05 I made a set of LED lights for my 02. I like the flashing
Love the patina. Don’t know if it’s artificial or real, but it looks great. I’d hesitate to do much cosmetically.
nice enjoy it mate
It looks more real than in concours condition
Where do you buy the brake line and coupler and tools? Thanks
All available on Amazon
What a dream turntable. How long have you owned it? I have collected a lot of vintage Luxman amps, preamps and tuners. Hope to land a vintage Luxman turntable someday like a PD277 or a 441. Thanks for sharing!
I recently acquired this beauty. I have a spare PD277 in excellent condition if you desire one.
@@skytopshop - where in the US are you located and what is your asking price?
wow!Its pretty a professional and great job!May i know whats types products are u plan to make?
Got a question for ya. I broke the ribbon cable for the encoder when mounting the y axis of an accurate DRO.
Am I able to replace with a different model scale than the one I had? I had an accurite senc 125 scale for the y axis but I can't find the same one on the internet at all
@@ISILENTNINJAIcan it be repaired? Resolder the connections?
@skytopshop I will try to if possible to open it up
Excellent video. Always add a coating of oil on reassembly when placing back in machine. Grease is only applied to teeth of gears and not the shaft.
Hey there. I'm doing the exact same repairs to my 61 convertible. Tune in and have a look. The doors are off of mine. I just used some 2x4s to suspend the body. Works great.
Note for those who receive the DRO Screen with two buttons that are labeled differently. The CA button is the same as the AC button and the INV button is the same as the ARC button. As of March 2024 the Operation Manual has not been updated to show this.
Im looking fot same thing but not fot R8 but for Nmtb40.. from nmtb 40 to nmtb 40 my application is very high because it is modified and not easy to go all the way up there to swap tool) Looking for master quick changer)
Nice welding setup. I also switched from Miller to vulcan. Takes a few test welds to figure out speed and amps depending on material but definitely better for the price/cost. Miller was great but just to expensive when things broke.
Yes please make a follow up video on this ram. Great videos.
Would like a follow up video
What model is your phase converter? I just bought the same lathe and was hoping to find some info about the converter. Thank you
You video skills are really good!
Talk bout over engineering....my goodness!!
Would have been very nice had you noted what brand / model and the cost! Thanks for posting
The brand is ToAuto. These are 1um linear scales. The sizes are 700mm, 400mm & 300mm. Check eBay and other online sites for current pricing.
How much for everything
SOLD
Very nice, I've never seen a exhaust hanger like that 👍
Looking great!!

I have a BP with a QC. I would like to have a discussion(DM or phone. with you when you have installed.
I’ve had the QC30 spindle installed for some time. I ❤️ it. You can contact me via Facebook. Look for Sky Top Shop. 👍🏻
Sorry I don't do any social media. I like mine too. I wont to tall about the run out when you reinsert a collet 180 degrees.
Thank you for the video as well as the Facebook contact info, I just acquired a bridgeport series 1 cnc mill with this spindle and I knew it was a 30 taper tooling but had no idea which or how it worked.
Is the QC 30 spindle for sale?
I have a spare QC30 spindle I might consider parting with.
Please email contact details and possible pricing? Where is Sky Top Shop
Hi, need spindle to replace damaged spindle.
@@lilmisseee96 you can contact me on Facebook. Search for Sky Top Shop.
Are these parts used for measurements only? Or will they control the table like a cnc?
These parts for precision measurements only. 1um
Glad everything worked out can't wait to get it mounted
I am excited to get this system up and running. I will be turning the ram turret 180° occasionally to utilize the shaper head, so I need to mount the head unit and all the cabling accordingly.
