After re-surfacing the key components of my mini lathe, I was finally able to start putting it back together to get a feel for its capabilities before attempting a conversion to #CNC.
However, before I can do that, there’s one thing. Now that everything is disassembled, it’s the perfect moment to capture it in #freecad.

i don't know any woodworkers on here in England.
@Nickiquote knows the oxford area.
for some reason @DamonHD springs to mind.

I've been toying with the idea of a #lathe to play around with. I've never touched one so lots of YouTubing in my future. I also saw that #MakerWorks has a class. Curious if anyone's taken that and had thoughts

I’m calling it good enough. The v-slot is far from perfect, but I had trouble spotting it reliably. Not only that, scraping there was difficult enough that at this point I’m afraid of making it worse.
After all, given where we started, I’m happy with the results!

Getting there! The v-slot is very difficult to both spot and scrape, but overall I am getting to somehow satisfactory fit. :)

I made a simple micrometer mounting plate, and now I can finally measure what I’m doing. Even with this makeshift setup, it’s a huge confidence boost to know that I’m moving in the right direction. :)

Attempting to scrape the saddle to fit bed ways for my CNC mini lathe. On YouTube it seemed so much easier :) I feel like it is super easy to mis-interpret the spotting marks - ink piling in the low spots and leaving false imprints.

I would like to build a Faulex in a magnified scale to show my #lathe skills

With the grinder completed, I could focus on the small carbide scraper I needed to fine-tune the recently machined saddle of the VEVOR lathe that I wanted to CNC.
A tool like that should be simply brazed, but I neither had the acetylene torch nor the silver solder.
Instead, I opted to hacksaw a slot in a steel bar that, with some persuasion, fit the carbide blade. A small 3D printed retaining ring designed in #freecad is enough to keep the blade firmly in place.

Final turning was done on the Emco #lathe itself in an attempt to maintain as much concentricity as possible.
Some polishing, a bit of cold blue and it’s done.

Yesterday, we launched our new shop #website. I spent a little more time on it than I had originally planned to but it is done for now. I may add some more features in the future but it is online and working now.
There were no big issues with the launch so I could go back to work #intheshop. I decided to drive the spindle on my #CNC #machine with a toothed belt to make good use of the servomotor that will power the spindle.
Assembly will be press fit with about 0.035mm interference. #lathe
