Re: [gingery_machines] Building a 2nd lathe

Keep up the great work...I did the same by making it 30 in long and the way
is 1/8 thicker...instead of casting the bed I used 2x2 aluminum stock
Have not got the rest done yet had to put it on hold because I'm building a
ultralight
Mosquito helicopter....should have that done in another three or four weeks.
.just
Need to install the rotor blades and get the wiring done then I can get back
to my lathe build..

Subject: [gingery_machines] Building a 2nd lathe

Started building a 2nd Gingery Lathe. Everything will be according to the
plans with the exception of the bed. Gingery's plans call for a 24" long bed
I have made my new one 30" long and using 3 bases instead of 2. I also made
the walls of the bed much thicker than the plans called for. So far so good,
and the Shaper has been a BIG help! I have posted a pic of the extended bed
and carriage here:
