Harrison L5 lathe rebuild

I gotta admit it's a fine bit of work you're doing but, old fart that I am, I would not tolerate a chuck guard, and a little spatter around the perifery of the work area I deem essential for a shop. Just my take . But I do appreciate the nice work you're doing.

This just keeps getting better. Keep it coming!

Looks like some fun fabrication you have going there Mick. How did you form all the large radii?

Ed, I know you were refering to the OP not my acidic post.

Steve,

A chuck guard is only worth having if is easily used and completely out of the way when it isn't. I use mine all the time. It saves me from walking around with a skunk stripe on my shirt the rest of the day.

I love skunks! And my wife keeps telling me I smell like one.
