Wow this things intimidating, I bought a 351.217120lathe with a 351.249520 copier yesterday for $250 I doubt that it was used 5 hours. I want to turn end plugs that go into fireworks mortar tubes(plastic pipe) These things have to be pretty precise. Can anyone direct me to a good book or better yet a video that shows how to set things up a work with this thing. The manual I got is about as basic as basic gets. I have to make 2.5" , 3", 4", 5" inch pieces. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can see myself getting into this thing once I catch onto it. Thank you Glenn south central Pa.
