Lathes

Expand your woodworking functions with a wood lathe Variety is the spice of life, so they say. Being able to design and build a variety of furniture will help your business. A wood lathe allows you to create furniture pieces such as chair and table legs with perfect radial symmetry. Alternatively, lathes are used to fashion sports equipment like baseball bats and pool cues. Whether you're in sports or supports, a wood lathe can help your business.

I recommend:  Look into the plethora of products available from lathe suppliers like Rockler, NewWoodworker.com and Tool King.

Use a metal lathe for more efficiency in machining Many machines require perfectly-formed parts to function properly. That means a precision that can often only be obtained with a metal lathe. Circular machine parts such as wheels, pistons, pipes and cylinders must meet precise specifications, and you often need a metal lathe for such work. Increase your ability to perform these jobs, especially in engine work, by purchasing the necessary lathe for your projects.

I recommend:  Lathe distributors such as Southern Tool, Summit Machine Tool and ROMI have various lathes from which you can choose the one for your needs.

Keep your industrial lathes spinning with information on parts and repair services Like any machinery, lathes will sometimes break down. You need access to service and/or replacement parts so that your business doesn't suffer and you can remain productive. If local businesses can't meet your needs, you must know how and where you can get your equipment back to full functionality, whether the problem is a faulty part or simply normal wear and tear.

I recommend:  Get information and quotes on lathe repair or parts from CNCLatheCutting Tools.com or Bourn and Koch. You can also get a quote from Orange Coast Rebuilding for extensive overhaul of old or severely damaged lathes.
