hazmail Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Hey Jerry, are you watching, SEE that 'square chuck' I have been talking about - I'm thinking it is the same, or very similar to 'Rapala's' machines - great job whatever it is.pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobP Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Central NC includes Lexington and Thomasville, furniture making centers where many factories have gone bust in the last 15 years. It would not surprise me if the duplicating lathe had been used for making furniture legs once upon a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fernet Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 @00:23 he puts the master in a primitive jig(just between a few nails). What on earth is he doing that for? Any theories? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speechless33759 Posted November 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Do you think you can only use Balsa on those machines or are they able to handle something harder like basswood and cedar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Such machines are used to carve cricket bats and table legs, so I guess the answer is yes. I would probably turn the feed rate down and stand well back for the first run though. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
on the line cranks Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I own the machine in the video. It's a homemade machine that I purchased used. I can cut baits out of balsa, cedar,basswood etc. If anyone is interested in unpainted bodies just let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vodkaman Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 On the line cranks, I am more interested in the machine. Which machine is yours (post number), as several machines displayed. Can you tell us more about it? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
