    PM Research Mini Engine Lathe Build

    I used metal bonder to hold the lead screw blocks in place for now, just so I could line everything up and get it working smoothly. Now I've got to take it all apart and drill the leadscrew blocks.

    Decided to put some time in on the PM lathe today. Got started on the apron today. Sill many more hours of work needed to finish up the apron alone.

    Finally got the drill bit sharpener done. Tested it on a chipped, dull 7/16 drill bit. Worked great. I'll probably start making the printed parts out of aluminum at some point in the future.

    Nice buy! I've been working on a few projects lately. Combo projects with the 3D printer, lathe, and mill. Got the mill chip guards almost done. The drill bit sharpener is also close to being done.
