Thanks Dr Stan.
I have quick change :) Very handy. Its Tripan brand - i think its Swiss.
I have an pedestal grinder, but its a cheap one that i got when i was a teenager, not a good unit. So im looking around to find an industrial piece.
One thing i found out today, is that half of the speeds on the lathe is not "available". The button for "level 2" does not engage. Might be an easy fix, but i think i have to open it to find out. That means i only have 60, 240, 315 and 1250. Im missing 120, 480, 630 and 2500 :(
Hope i can fix it, otherwise i just have to live with it for now. Im planning for a bigger unit next year, but i thought this was good for learning some basics.
What kind of knurling tools are best then? I see there are different designs.
