Finished the lathe up to now I have put a misubishi vfd controller and a 3 phase motor on it an it runs well. I can control the speed easily
I bought new bronze nuts for the top slide and crossfeed and a new top slide leadscrew
Ive just finished my sx2 leadscrews and am waiting for some alloy to be posted and then I can make the mounts for the delrin nuts that I've also finished
