Hi Curt. I did send you an Email, it appears I upset some folk by saying that the Loms need a bit of help to make them more user friendly . I only want to make them better. Being an uneducated person I don't use the correct words!!!?? No worries though ..
Thanks for the heads up on the Shopsmith parts.May help others. I myself like making thing that fit the Revo. Have already made a 5/8ths Chuck adaptor to fit my small wood lathe. An English made Coronet, About 50 plus years old, before Record took them over I bought it a few months ago absolutely in pristine condition ,hardly used. 5 Coronet chisels unused and as new all wrapped up in grease proof paper. I just want to match both machines Revo for some decoration then sanding jobs a bit faster on the wood lathe.
