    I am a machinist and that's not an easy thing to do on a small manual lathe. To turn a shaft that long and have no taper from one end to the other. I think you did a great job. 👍

      My brother built and installed vertical mills for several years…I bought a 48 inch used lathe that the previous owner said was a piece of scrap so I bought it …my brother brought home a 48 inch piece of 1.5 inch chrome cylinder rod.. threw it up in my new lathe ran a dial indicator in place of a cutter then showed me how to adjust the longitudinal ways…about 6 hours later I had a brand new lathe.. I found out later the previous owner had drop the lathe unloading the day he bought…one of the best deals of my life..

    Always love the shop fabrication videos. Mike, i know you know it, but I will say it again…, having MBTS in your “employ” is priceless, if nothing else for the comic relief, but he is a wealth of knowledge on a lot of your builds. BTW, your hose guide/clamp/holders are “genius”..! Simple, and so practical.
    Great video,
    Thank you sir.
