Mini Lathe Multiple Banjos Single Point Threading

[Paul Jones]

JR,

I remember seeing a series in the magazine The Home Shop Machinist about making simple modifications to the 7" swing mini lathes and included changing the belt drive gear to fewer teeth. In the process of searching the Internet, I found another interesting build using gear reductions on the main drive motor (see Robert's Projects: Mini Lathe Modifications ). A little more complicated than the easier Home Shop Machinist change but looks interesting.
