I want to polish resin pen barrels. I don;t know much about lathes so I have a question. Does this lathe comes with attachment to hold a pen barrel?

Pens are turned on this machine with ease. I use it almost daily to make pens and have no complaints

This lathe comes with no attachments for pens. For this lathe you will need to buy an mt2 mandrel for that.

No it doesn't, for this lathe you will need tp purchase a pen mandrel #1MT (Morse taper). When buying a lathe be sure to check what # MT the lathe has. Both head and tail stock

Hi Lulu!As you can see in the main/first image on the listing, the metal barrel screws off the pen and the tip is then able to be removed, which would also be where you place a new one on and then screw the barrel back in place. If there's anything else, just let me know.

i found that I needed to buy an interchangeable pen. comes with some wire to make your own tips. I found one for about $25 online at Packard Woodworks

I don't see why not. This is a pretty small lathe but I think it would work. Not sure how the pen mandrel would attach. I'm guessing you would need to get a chuck for the lathe as it uses collets by default.

What you really need with this lathe is a duplicator and template, doing it free hand is very difficult I have tried a few time to do it without a duplicator and its very hard even if you know what your doing. Using the duplicator allows you to cut exact pieces. It's still difficult but not impossible.

check with www.grizzly.com, I got my lathe there and they have a lot of adapters and accessories

you buy that separately. go with a nova chuck, and this is a nice lathe, but, forget woodcraft.

This product has a 2MT arbor and your lathe needs be able to accept that. Also, you need a bed of about 19" from the base of the head stock in order for the tailstock to safely rest on the bed and to be able to place a live center to hold this.

There is nothing cheap and I have both. Onthe item page under ...also bought or looked at or...whatever... there will be items that you can choose from. Go by name or price but make sure it fits the lathe. One thing I have learned is that exspensive is not better.

Florian the PSI buffing system will fit on ANY lathe that has a #2 Morse Taper headstock. You'll have to check to see if your Duracraft lathe has a #2 Morse Taper headstock and if so, it will fit perfectly. I use mine on both a Rikon 1216VS and the Jet 1221VS lathes and really enjoy how the PSI buffing system works. The system includes enough buffing bars and (White Diamon and Tripoli) plus Carnuba wax to last a lifetime, so don't bother ordering extra buffing supplies until you have (probably never... ;>) ).

Sure you can and I have for years....I use it to drill the blank, square the ends, and assemble. I have turned pens on it too but prefer a smaller lathe for my pen work.

Really not a metal lathe. Jet doesn't seam to have adapters to do this. How ever if you really wish to do this you might be able to turn soft metals (brass, aluminum, copper) as you would a spindle. To ream out the center of a piece of metal you will have to figure out how to attach the metal to the head. Turning chisels can be used but will encounter more ware and heat than with wood. Also the Discarted metal will be hot so clean up all the wood chips from and around your lathe. Remember safety first.

Michael,I received my lathe back in November along with a face plate, a spur center and a live tailstock. It also included a knockout rod for the center and tailstock. The lathe has worked flawlessly! The only thing you will need to do is turn the head stock around and install the belt (it comes packaged that way). Hope this helps.

do not deal with PrecisionSewing...get the foot from Janome for your particular machine. The foot I got was for a short shank and is of no use to me.

This item comes with the drill attachment. The neat thing is that you can get other attachments (a sander is one) for this device.

Hola! It does come with a brush, a wrench, a viscosity funnel and the users manual. There is only one needle included. Besides that, it is just the spray gun, and the turbine unit. There is a very nice "you tube" video that I watched before deciding on this unit. (Earlex HV5500 spray station Pro HVLP system product tour By Highland. woodworking). Hope it helps!
