(1/5) > >>

After a nine week wait the lathe has arrived and it now looks about ten times bigger than it looked at Chester's showroom!

just got to move it  :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

I'm sure you are going to enjoy your Crusader as much as I do with mine.

Understanding the gearbox setting up was the only real operating problem that I had, but once I had the key figured out, all has been great since. Don't forget that the drop in dial for screwcutting has three separate gears you can fit, but only for metric. For Imperial, you have to leave the half nuts permanently engaged.

John, did you stick with the chester supplied "T2" QCTP?

I'm looking to end up with a dozen or so holders, so would really like to head in the right direction!

I bet that was a long nine weeks too!!  Glad it arrived safely...we will nee pictures of course  :)
