The right lathe
#24
I have an Emco Emcomat 7 with the longer bed. It's a nice, small machine. I did have to modify a set of Chinese mini-lathe gears to make a gear cutting set for it. I am set up to cut imperial threads. Setting up for cutting threads is always fiddly but it works fine. I have successfully made parts for my Riley on it. But it's really a modelling type lathe. It was my next small step up from a Chinese mini-lathe. The swing is only 3.5" from memory and it doesn't have a cut out in the bed. It's too small for me machine the big end of a Velocette LE con rod which isn't huge for example. Often consider getting a bigger, more useful machine then I remember what a pain it is to find and move and install them!
