Extending Lathe
Posted: Sat Aug 24, 2019 3:44 pm
Hi everyone We just got our son a mark 5, we are pretty sure a 500series.
He is super excited and can’t wait to start making stuff. One thing he really wants to make is a sword from a tutorial online. Problem is the lathe is 34” and he needs it slightly longer. Is there a reason not to buy longer tubes and replace the ones that are there? Doing a cursory look, it seems like it wouldn’t be difficult to remove them.
Thx for your help- I’m sure we will have lots of questions. At least paranoid mom will
