Mini lathe (and mill) discussion.

That's a nice mill and a great price.

Wish I had a shop and access to 3 phase power!

A shop i have,,i bought an 8000 square foot warehouse a few years ago as my plumbing company vans, equipment, materials, etc was overflowing at my rented location. The 3 phase power comes from a rotary phase converter. I will have multiple outlets connected to the phase converter.

Just looked at phase converters and it looks like a great way to go! That shop sounds nice as well.

I'll post photos of the phase converter.

Finally. After more than a year of trying I picked up the big Lagun mill. Probably 3000 lbs. Unloaded it at my shop and called it a day (100 mile round trip). Moving it into the future machine room will require wall opening.

Couple of photos from when i first visited the mill.

You can do some serious milling on that thing! Congratulations on getting it home!

That’s not near big enough for working on toy airplanes.

Need any standoffs made?
