Hello all, I just stumbled upon this forum and was very impressed with the overall kindness and people's willingness to help. I love Canada.
While I am new here I'm not completely new to metal working. I work as a technician in a watch repair shop and currently do a fair amount of work on a Boley watchmaker's lathe.
I recently convinced my boss to purchase a very well-equipped secondhand Schuablin CF-70 lathe from Switzerland. I used one of these many years ago at a training course I did in Switzerland and fell in love with this lathe.
I have some questions which I will post appropriately.
