Made a wood lathe

[Ed]

30. Electronic fan control fitted to cover, set to switch the fan on when the motor gets to 50 C and switches the fan off when motor drops back to 35 C, plus fuse, power switch and an emergency stop switch which connects to the control panel.
31. Pipe welded to baseplate to hold the remote control panel, it gets screwed down to a piece of 600mm square ply.
32. Completed remote control panel, containing the Variable Speed Drive (VSD) emergency stop button, main switch and a 10amp 3 phase circuit breaker. Most of the 3 phase sockets in my shed are either 32amp or 40amp and protected by the same circuit sized breakers, so this enables me to connect it to any of them and still be protected by the 10amp breaker on the panel for the motor.
33. Welded a 30mm x 3.5mm nut I made inside a 8mm x 60mm pipe for the tool post holder. This becomes part of the sleeve for sliding the threaded MT3 holder in and out.
34. Tool post holder and sleeve.
35. Welded two parallel C channels (230mm x 75mm) together for the post frame and cut out a hole for the sleeve.
36. Welded frame to 10mm base plate
37. Tool post mostly assembled
38. Tool post handle with stainless tube handle sleeve.
39. Tool post locking nut.
