Folks,
I have a friend who inherited a model 510 shopsmith. I've never had to outfit one of these tools for penturning so I'm lookiing for some help.
What do you need to get a mandrel on one of these tools? Does the headstock accept MT2?
Same question on the tailstock. What sort of live center does it have or what do you need?
I assume these tools usually come with some sort of tool rest, is that a good assumption? He didn't get any turning tools so I'm not sure how complete the tool he inherited was.
Any advice is appreciated.
John
