Very nice , a bit of competition for the VB36 ?. Looks like it can take some hefty bits of timber .

Looks like it gets a lot of influences from the Stubby...

 

[skeetoids]

Remember gents that it's not the size of the tool that counts but how you use it!

so did I Chas- your a bit slow of the mark Blister

as for vb36 competion :lol: i very much doubt it- no matter how big it is just like the titan, stein etc the bearings are still not up to the job :roll:

No it isn't, it's what you know about who you know that really counts.

Possibly (very possibly) I'm missing something - but if you want to swing something wide and short, and you swing the left side of the bed out of the way, and you're right handed, you wouldn't half get p*$£^d off bouncing your leg off the the swung aside bit of the bed. :-k

Isn't a capability of 5 ton at 7000 rpm enough :?: :lol:

it can have all the size and claims of capability Mark but the fact is taper roller and ball bearings will not have the longevity and more imoprtantly the fine tolerances to cope with it.

 

[Paul.J]

Just think if it did have the same bearings as the VB fitted

 

[Davyboy]

Blimey, that's a lathe & a half isn't it? literally Looks like a good piece of kit!!!
