[@AlmostMachining]

What a great video Steve! It was wonderful meeting you and listening to what you had to say in person. I am glad you had a great time - Phil

[@10swatkins]

Thanks, you too!

[@Anotherhomeshopguy]

Steve, it was great meeting you and hanging out during the gear class. Jeff

[@10swatkins]

Same for me Jeff :)

Have a safe trip the rest of the way home Steve. A few years ago i attended Andrew’s gear school at his shop in Ventura. It was amazing. Then i went to the Bash. I agree what a huge undertaking and i really appreciate Stan making it happen every year. You picked up some really nice additions to your shop! Take care and say hello to Don, Norm in Arizona

I have that same oiler on my Wells-Index mill. They are nice!

[@johnb5519]

Quite a nice assortment of interesting tools.

[@StuartsShed]

Nice haul! Thanks for the look around - I hope to attend next year. Cheers and all the best. 👍

[@10swatkins]

Any time!

[@paulputnam2305]

Toys, toys, and more toys. I really like your dial bore set.

[@10swatkins]

Me too!

[@johnrussell6620]

At 1:05, can you put together a video on setting up and using the right angle milling adapter? I have looked for and not found a video doing work with this adapter. maybe 2-3 different ideas about cutting, grinding, what ever you could think of. TKS Steve, John

[@10swatkins]

Will do, I will keep it in mind when the bridgeport is finished...

[@TheUncleRuckus]

Hey one of those oilers would work for oiling the nut you guys made for Don's baby shaper. 👍👍

[@10swatkins]

That it would! Not much room to mount it but we will look it over...

[@konradweniger3141]

I would have like to know the price on the Beverly shear been thinking about one all I find are Chinese imports.

[@10swatkins]

Sorry did not even think to ask as I had no interest... Tring to be a good boy lately :)

[@diamondpressco2673]

are all d1-3 chucks the same? my kent has d13 and i could use collet chuck

[@10swatkins]

Should be,,,, You are second or third in line for it...

[@10swatkins]

You still interested? Reply here...

[@ianmoone2359]

I’d kill for that Pratt - Burnered Atlas Collet Chuck Steve if no one else has put their hand up for it? I just priced one new here downunder from their agents who sell Colchester here & with freight & 10% GST (Goods & Service Tax) it topped out at $🇦🇺4.4K 😳😳🙄 My lathe takes D1-5 back plate, but I’ll either just buy or make one to suit that Chuck if you’ll be kind enough to sell it to me please?

[@10swatkins]

This is a Hardinge- Sjogren Speed Collet Chuck that uses 2J collets.. Are you sure that is what you want??

[@ianmoone2359]

@@10swatkins Ahh no I honestly don’t know Steve. I’m just new at this hobby & thought it looked like the Pratt Burnered Atlas Collet Chuck I priced. At $4.4K I sure won’t be buying one of those new any time soon. It’s almost half what I paid for my new lathe - so can’t justify that sort of expense sadly. I’m guessing a new $500 Chinese Collet Chuck is in my future most likely.

[@10swatkins]

@@ianmoone2359 That's fine... Being new to the hobby I think you might not need a collet chuck just yet... Do you not have a 3 and 4 jaw chuck? That is really all you need at first.. Hell I went 30 years before I ever needed a collet chuck and that was for a really special need...

[@ianmoone2359]

@@10swatkins Yes new 14 x 40 lathe came with 8 inch 3 & 4 jaw chucks & face plate, fixed & travelling steady rests etc. At $4.4K for the Pratt Burnered Atlas it’s likely gonna be 30 years before I can afford one of them & im 65 already so likely long after I’m dead. I think I will just go with a cheapie Chinese scroll collet Chuck off Evilbay for $600 for now will likely do me & at least I’ll have it the day I need it. 👍

[@myname4516]

is that your RV?

[@10swatkins]

Mine and the Banks.....

[@timetodopatriotstuff2315]

I'm not buying anything from a guy that doesn't know who Don is he better hurry up and catch up on the video's 😂

[@10swatkins]

I felt really sorry for the guy :)
