    well it's a lathe ruclips.net/user/postUgkxN9zrzkkhnjUF5PQbuA_B1gYdsfCu9k6z but it wasn't what i would have anticipated. Headstock, tailstock, carriage apron are manufactured from aluminum now not cast iron. The spindle diameter for the bearings is too small allowing for a few play in the spindle so I am using some blue Loctite to take out the play.

    I used to have an EMCO Compact 8, it is one of the best small lathes one can get.. if you want smaller, get either the proxxon or an EMCO Compact 5.. i have a Compact 5 CNC now, and i use it to make titanium watches.
    I also bought an EMCOturn 120 which is quite a different machine alltogether.. it is a slantbed CNC lathe with an 8 position Toolchanger.. and a 2.2Kw spindelmotor.. the thing is a beast!..

      Yes, a lot of us were expecting to see an injury. The entire time, no eye protection, yet wears gloves at times while operating machines. Opens the gear boxes and runs two of them Right next to one another. Almost runs into the Chuck while it’s spinning. For those of us that have training, watching this is painful. For those of us that don’t, well, it’s still painful. Your gut knows when something is wrong. Just because the machine is small doesn’t mean it’s a damn toy. This video needs a disclaimer when people are as stupid as him in the world. Someone with far too much disposable income is gonna buy one of those having no idea how to use it and end up seriously hurting themselves.
      P.S. don’t look up “de-gloved hand” - suffice it to say it’s why you don’t wear your wedding ring while operating these things. Yuck.

    Just a suggestion for anyone getting a mini-lathe with the sheet metal backsplash on it. This doesn't really scale down well from a larger lathe and makes it difficult to work around the chuck, clean, and so forth. It can make thing less crowded and open things up to just remove it. If you absolutely must have a backsplash, you can fashion one that is free standing and even movable and place it a little further back from the lathe.

      Exactly, and I mean EXACTLY what I was thinking. No eye protection, wearing gloves while operating the machines, nearly running into the spinning Chuck. It’s irritating this guy seems to have NO formal training in machining, yet has the money to buy all this crap. I wonder if he’s still alive. Considering the time most of us have had to put in just to safely operate a lathe/mill at work/school, seeing this is painful. At the end, he turns them all on at once with exposed gears. Then it says “both lathes are professional lathe” - there was nothing professional about this video, including the lathes.

      For a similar price you'd get a higher capacity, better rigidity and your lad would learn a lot about lathe mechanics from cleaning it up.

      @@tigerteff015 Mine's a 90ME about the same age as yours, bought on eBay a couple of years ago. I upgraded the spindle to the current M14 by 1 because I needed a 4 jaw chuck. The spindle was expensive, not to mention the 4 jaw chuck, the 3 jaw chuck, vertical milling slide, vice, two die holders, faceplate etc. I converted the original M14 by 1.5 spindle and 3 jaw chuck into a dividing head using a 30 tooth worm gear. The old girl managed to bore a 3/4" hole through a 1.5" cube of aluminium to take phosphor bronze bushes for the spindle. It took a while. With a couple of shop made division plates, I can accurately drill the 4, 5 and 7 hole bolt circles I need for the small steam engines I build, and many more besides.
      Although the lead screw is well worn, It still manages accurate work. Trouble is the lead screw runs directly in the cast iron saddle and would require some expensive and risky machining by Cowells, which I can't justify.
      I've built a Stuart 10V and a D10 steam engine using just the lathe and milling slide. The Stuart Compound Launch I'm working on at present is a different ball game for which I bought a small, cheap Chinese mill. The lathe setup just isn't rigid enough to cope.
      I'd like to move onto something bigger that will turn a flywheel more than 3.5" in diameter. The mill I bought is OK, but can't hold a candle to the quality of a well worn 50 year old Cowells lathe.

    Arrgghhh!!! Are you kidding? All you had to do was listen to the cries of pain that first machine was making. Others have already said it all. This video is a metal machinists nightmare. This is a perfect video on what NOT to do. The parallel rough turning of (relatively) large diameter, unsupported, long overhang with a tool that had no shape, rake or clearance angles is simply awful and, as a metalwork teacher, difficult to watch. Did you do any calculation of cutting speed and RPM? The sound that poor little lathe is making made me want to take it off you, and then you give yourself a thumbs up. Huh? I couldn't watch after the first one. Such a beautiful little machine abused in that way should be a crime.

      So you make fair points, but look at it from the other point of view - not everyone is a machinist by trade. Perhaps rather than just throwing shade from a position of privilege, we could instead make positive suggestions so that at least people who do watch this video know how to be safe. The fact is, not everyone needs to know *everything* about using a lathe (some people just want to make the occasional bushing or whatever), and people *are* going to buy them, regardless whether you think they should. If there are 10 "golden rules" for using a lathe (tie back any loose hair/clothes, never run without stock in the chuck, learn which tools are for which task, etc), offer those from your experiences instead.
