K1016 Power feed retrofit kit for Micro Lathe

[phoglite]

Has anyone installed and used the new taig power feed kit on their older lathe? I've just ordered one and am eager to try it out. -Keith

If you have the older style cross feed (no bearing) it would be best to also upgrade the new cross feed leadscrew assembly. My customers that have also upgraded to the new crossfeed leadscrew are amazed with how much better it works.

The power feed kit is not too hard to install, just take your time. If you Google 'Taig Owners Club' I posted a how-to guide with photos. I can't include a direct link from CNC zone to another forum, sorry.)

Jeff - Thanks! I am a member of that forum and posted here just before checking there... Hope to have mine installed next weekend. -Keith
