Explain that to your boss. I am emailing them right now.

Yes I am going to bore it past the key way and plug it. The moderator is editing my post so I am going to email the webmaster and complain. Shoptask shouldn't be able to advertise here it's against...

I am showing you the gear that attaches to the Lathe feed gearbox shown. The shaft measures 14mm but the gears inside diameter measures 14.5 mm. This gear was installed and they knew it didn't fit...

There is no guarantee that if you burn up a spindle and need a new cartridge that the new one will fit your machine. Everyone of these machines were fitted for them on the assembly line. So the bore...

Here is a picture of a mill spindle installed in the cartridge. All you have to do to remove the spindle is to remove the bearing lock nuts and tap the spindle out the bottom of the cartridge.The...

Go to the Shoptask website for the bearing numbers. They are both tapered roller bearings. You can see that by the picture I showed. They list the bearing numbers. The spindle and the cartridge are...

Here is a picture of most of the bushings I replaced with Bronze bushings or bearings. Notice that they are all made of steel. They were rough machined and the fit was not acceptable to me. Also here...

JT is selling that one on Ebay. Its his ad I thought you would know that. I see some free advertising here. You guy never give up do you.

Like I said the upper bearing is a slip fit. The lower is a press fit . I did not have to use a press to remove the spindle. I just taped it out of the housing. I could not have bent the cage it was...

The shaft was taped out with a soft mallet from the other side. It didn't need to be pressed out. Now if I had run it this way it would have had to be pressed out . Their is no need to use a press if...

I read that same ad the other day . Jump on it joey it's right down the street from you.

When you purchase the X2 and X3 you better replace the spindle bearings right away or you will have problem. The same thing with the shoptask. Try to remove the spindle after the bearings have fried....

These machines have no resale value. You spend way more money trying to fix this machine than you paid for it. just to get it to run. If you don't have allot of time and resources so don't even...

Anyone can see JT doesn't have a camera that good. Have you noticed the detail my camera offers. That is just low resolution so I can post it on this site. I can only assume that JT got tired of...

You have to have a lathe and mill to start with to fix the problems with the shoptask. I have a lathe and a friend has a mill. I have a retired machinist to do work for me also for free. You could...

They can go back in the posts and see the pictures a year ago so stop trying to change the subject that you don't own a machine and you made it up.

Smallblock you are the one who doesn't own a machine. Everyone knows my machine . Shouldn't you be going back to school soon. What are you this year a freshman in High school. I sense a bit of...

I thought this forum was about shoptask lathes not paint jobs. You don't really think people believe you anymore without pictures do you. Its over with the scam is to old to play guys. You need to...

First you need to buy one.

fastlanecafe your another one of those people claiming to have a shoptask. It's time to put up or shut up guys. The red machines showed up after I posted my pictures not before.At least I can prove I...

Here are pictures of my mill gearbox. This gear box had to be disassembled and repaired. Also the gears were bead blasted and burrs filed away. All the steel bushing are either bronze or ball bearing...

First Shortblock you have to buy a machine to do that. To bad JT changed the color you can't take pictures of his machines anymore . People will know for sure this time. As for the red mine was red...

The Z axis also has a ball screw. The original lift screw had been machined wrong from the factory and it bound up trying to use it so a ball screw was in order since I had a spare ball nut. As for...

Here is a picture of the mill lift Ball Screw I am working on. I just finished the Ball nut flange. It's a perfect fit without modifying the casting. I am still working on the mill gearbox bushings...

Norvil the spindle bore is a MT4 . The tail stock is a MT3.

Except for the power feed that part hasn't changed. There a small gear box with 2 RH helical gears for the hand feed on the X axis added that's all. the spindle housings has been the same since 1990...

No your wrong. But I am defiantly not promoting the Shoptrash. Smithy just happens to have the top slide that will work with my machine and tool post. Just like JT they never have spare parts. He...

No pictures no proof. I don't think his allowance from his parents would cover it.

I see you still don't have any pictures yet. Prove me wrong if you can.

You guys show up once a month telling everyone how you bought a shoptask. But it hasn't arrived yet. Just like clockwork.You show no evidence that the machine ever arrives. Then you show pictures of...
