Our school is one …
Our school is one of the largest and oldest shops around. I hope that the powers that be recognize this. 15,000 sq feet and over 40 machines. It truly is set up for trades training rather than applied skills. Regardless, it has not been shut down and that is a blessing. I keep my fingers crossed hoping that It will always remain that way, even after I have left.
thanks for watching

I have just installed to large lathes in the last couple of years.
They are both 21x60inches. The last lathe I got was a used kingston lathe (mazak copy) It had been sitting in the warehouse unused for most of its life. It is like new.
The big machines I designate for machinist training. In the wrong hands they can kill.
thanks for watching

Just started a new job where I new to some times use a metal lathe, I was trained at college but that was over 16 years ago, thank you for this video. I now have the information needed.

Could you do a video showing the different tools that can be used on the lathe?
