Stuff from the MS.
Not really a tool review as much as an observation. I needed to get a few trinkets from Her Highness the MS for the grayling, drive hub, another handle and the thing it screws into for the quill extender. I notice the black handle one is about 3/4-1" longer then the red ones. Like it better and still clears the sanding disc.
I still prefer the balled ends like the ER has though, I picked up a few of them from HogWinslow but they are shorter then Skips but not as pricey.

Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them.

I agree with the balled ends. That is why i am going to turn a piece,of very hard wood into a ball, drill and tap it and voila! Now where can i find a lathe!

An ER but for thread cutting you need a Machinist Lathe with a power drive to the cutter. BUT I think you were pulling my legChrisNeilan wrote:I agree with the balled ends.

Re: Stuff from the MS.
I think he was 'looking' for a lathe to turn the ball. Drilling and tapping does not require a lathe.
FWIW, I refer the Mark 5 handles.

Re: Stuff from the MS.
JPG I know that and so does Chris, but he is a turner, I would Epoxy the ball on the shaft, and just do a die to cut the threads, but I know you new better or another way?

Re: Stuff from the MS.
Oh dear, let's play nice!
It was all in good fun.
Speaking of turning, I set up my 10er in the garage so i can wheel it out into the driveway. Beautiful weather last weekend so i decided to turn some Freedom Pens! This was actually the first time using the 10 as a lathe and it performed well. A little different from my big Powermatic, but a lot of fun!
