New MicroMark 7x16

[Mintman]

New to me at least. Picked this up used from Waynewright. Now I just need some time to get it set up and play with it. I'm pretty excited to try my hand at kitless!

Well done! I love that the image is upside down until you click it too. This lathe must be magical!

The image looks upside down because this was one of the Microlux lathes that was made in Australia. When photographing them in the northern hemisphere you have to turn on the camera's hemisphere auto detect setting. You also need to make sure it has been wired correctly for the northern hemisphere so that it rotates in the correct direction up here. :biggrin: I'm sure it's already been set to go though. You should really enjoy it. I love mine!

You made a good choice. Have a good time.

Wow. I know some guys are real sticklers for keeping their tools sparkling clean, but I've never heard of anybody mounting a lathe upside down, just to keep stuff from falling onto the ways. Even upside down, it looks good. Have fun.
