The one from my Jet 1236 <br>would be perfect fit, but that lathe will be finding a new owner in the <br>near future (more on that below). I'd only have to make a new clamp <br>plate for any similar banjo that someone might have laying around. Needs <br>to be for 1" toolpost to fit the ones I have already. If you have one, <br>send me a picture and name your price, I'll come pick it up if it suits me.<br><br>Now, regarding the Jet 1236 I replaced, this lathe was purchased for me <br>by Jim Cox a few years ago as a gift. I want to pay it forward and <br>donate it to a novice woodturner who may be financially challenged as I <br>was when Jim gifted it to me. I haven't figured out the best way to make <br>this happen, maybe a raffle? Or a nomination of names, voted on by club <br>members? I'd be willing to donate it directly to the club, and can <br>deliver it up to the next meeting if that works OK.<br><br>The lathe is in fairly good shape, not used too hard, but the Reeves <br>drive doesn't engage very well at the low speed ranges. A good cleaning <br>and lubrication will probably fix that.<br><br>Ken Grunke<br><br><br>_________________________________________<br>Use "Reply to All" or "Reply List" to reach the whole group, "Reply" goes only to sender.<br>______<br>crw-talk mailing list<br>crw-talk@crwoodturner.com<br>http://crwoodturner.com/mailman/listinfo/crw-talk_crwoodturner.com<br>Check the archive to make sure your message was sent: http://crwoodturner.com/pipermail/crw-talk_crwoodturner.com/<br></body></html>
