    finally getting comfortable!!!!

    I have been playing mostly with my LATHE since I got it,, and doing a lot of reading and more reading,,, so yesterday I figured I would build a front hub for a 70 to match some go-kart hubs I just got,, they are very kool and way different than any I have seen.. so I needed to build a front hub to match,, so here is a series of pictures from yesterday and today , from start to paint,, a new front hub. the last picture is the rear hubs I got ..

    Very nice! A lathe and a mill are a wonderful thing!!
    All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country

    Very nice work Just remember faster isn't always better on the lathe. For harder tool steels, with the right insert you more than likely will run a very low speed and a medium to heavy feed. Just a tip from a fellow machinist. I'm sure you can look up the speeds and feeds online and feel it out from there. Once again, nice job!

    in picture 7 and 8 you made a machinist nono, never leave the chuck key in the chuck, it is too easy to engage it and either throw the key at you, or mangle it against the ways
    rectum nothin damn near killed them
