Talk:Lathe

message: I've only scanned some of the links, but it seems that most of them (here as well as in the "machining" topic) are a little skewed towards company information, versus independent information resources.  Perhaps I can offer a few other links if I get a chance this weekend, but I wanted to point out my initial thought on the article(s).
: Unfortunately the Vendors section along with the support section were starting to attract links to either payment only material or second hand machinery and reseller sites, this has been the case for a while and isn't going to stop while some seemingly okay links remain (manufacturers such as bridgeport and south bend).  I've redirected South bend to their informative 9 inch Workshop Lathes article as it has value. The rest are toast, unless they can show they add something to the resource. — Graibeard – talk 13:29, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Live center is the correct term, and the one used in production work.  I've never known or seen anyone working in a production shop tool up with a "revolving center," just hobbyists. Toastydeath 21:04, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Micro lathe

message: Why no mention of recording lathes that create a playable phonograph record or lacquer master? Scully and Neumann made a bunch of them in the 20th century. Here's a photo of a mastering engineer next to a Neumann lathe in 2001. Binksternet (talk) 21:01, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Phonograph record cutting lathes 

message: I wanted to learn more about the lathes used to make spun instrument strings like those used on guitars and pianos. Many automated lathes exist for mass production and many manual ones are used for restoring old pianos. How are they set-up or used? What makes them different from other lathes? It doesn't cut anything so it's more like a spindle (not mentioned in Wiki's spindle article).  It's hard to find good information about them.65.80.178.227 (talk) 06:53, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  String Lathes 

message: This point probably applies to more than the "accessories" section, but there seems to be a lot of redundancy between that section and the "construction" section at lathe (metal). Is there any way we can structure this better as to reduce the redundancy? Wizard191 (talk) 00:29, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Good idea. I will plan to look into this. I started with "steady rest" tonight. — ¾-10 05:04, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
