Workshop Wednesday: Laguna 1836 Lathe Modification - Moving the Tailstock Lock Handle to the Front
I have a hard time locking and unlocking the tailstock on my Laguna 1836 lathe. I had several options to fix this:
1. Reposition where the handle locks by adjusting the nut underneath the tailstock so it didn’t lock underneath the bracket for the light
2. Remove the bracket for the light
3. Move the handle from the back of the lathe to the front
Several viewers mentioned moving the handle and reminded me that Shay from BB Turning did this, so I went and watched his video. I decided to make a video of me doing mine so there are several videos available on this process, with video taken from different angles, etc. Big thanks and shoutout to Shay @BBTurning
See Shay’s video here:

I do not expect the handle to be in my way on the front, since the handle from the banjo doesn’t interfere with turning, so I’m quite pleased to have been able to make this change - my hands and shoulders will be thankful!
