New Lathe at Bodger’S Lodge?

[JasonBModerator @jasonb]

This video came up after something else I was watching and I thought it may be a new lathe at the Lodge, looks like something JS would knock up and seems to have an ELS that works to under 50 microns. The red paint suggests it could also be the latest addition to the Sieg lineup

that's quite a nice lathe Jason, not too sure about playing tunes on the electronics, but mechanically it looks sound.

It looks impressive, it certainly doesn't look like a hobbyist build, judging by the sheer size of the workspace. If sieg sold that machine, they'd have riots at the factory in shenzhen because of the overtime they'd need to work just to keep up with demand i suspect!

Was it powered by the Mississippi Belle ? certainly made a lot of funny banging sounds when it ran.

That before he started playing tunes on the steppers.

Jasons Tidman organ engine I think.

Obviously a clever mind has initiated it but end product is a real Heath Robinson affair. – A mate of mine is one of those oddball deranged minded steam punk lunatics. …………. He would love it.!
