New lathe

+

2024-02-22

+ +

I haven't updated this blog for a couple of months due to my yearly winter brain fog during the dark season, +but here I am again. I've just ordered a new lathe from Bordet, the Coronet Herald.

+

My home-made lathe works but has limitations that I hope to overcome, +and it's going to give me a well needed push to get back into making things rather than being a couch potato.

+

I chose the Coronet Herald as it is the only lathe in it's category that has a rotating headstock, +which enables turning of large pieces, and in general it is at the top of all reviews.

+

I also have a project for a new workshop, as sharing the garage with madame is far from optimal and a guy needs his man-cave, right?

Another Oland tool

+

2024-03-18

+ +

I'm making myself some new oland tools. The ones I have are rather big, and I wanted some finer tools.

+

This one is for 5mm HSS tool bits. It has a 7mm hole in a 12mm steel shaft with a set screw to hold the tool bit, +which can be ground to any form

Support percé pour bougie chauffe-plat

+

2024-03-11

+

+

I was give a scrap block of Iroko to try out, and came up with this.

+

Piercing the holes took a while even with mini drill. It has a Tung oil finish.
