I've had a little time with this machine, figuring out how to use a cnc lathe was the most time consuming. So far I love this machine, fast accurate, easy to use. I have some video of it cutting, I need to edit it and upload it, a project for later this week depending on getting customers stuff out of the way.
So far I have only modded one thing and that was to put shut of valves on the coolant lines, I wanted to be able to shut off the turret coolant for filming and certain work.
The 5c collet isn't the easiest thing to swamp, you need to take out 5(?) bolts and hold the belt to turn it out. Big problem for me? No, I don't expect to use it that much and when I do it will be a run of parts. From what I have seen most industrial lathes aren't the easiest either.
I will get more pics and videos up as soon as I can, also I will write tutorials on how to do stuff as I learn how.
