My first two lathes also didn’t have a quick change gearbox. The first, a brand new EMCO Unimat 3, had the type of gear cutting using a hob, master thread piece, etc. I never bought that part. It was pretty expensive, clumsy, and you had to buy a master thread for every thread. I did but the headstock for drilling and milling. The problem with that lathe wax that with a .1 horsepower motor, you could get much done. It’s built like a jewel, and I still have it. My second is a 6” swing (3” radius for you British types) Atlas. That has change gears. Some company everntally made a quick change gearbox after I stopped using the lathe for much, but I never found it. I still have this one two. My third is a South Bend 10L Heavy w/2 1/4x8 headstock. That has a quick change. I bought that used in 1983. Great lathe. I bought some new parts from SB back then. Used it every day at my company. In 2002 I bought a SB FOURTEEN off eBay. Another great lathe with gearbox. My main lather. The truth is that while change gears can teach someone some about gear cutting, I wouldn’t ever recommend one. The problem is that realistically, most people just set the lathe to one average feed speed and never change it, because it’s too much work. They also almost never, or just never cut threads, for the same reason. I’ve known guys to cut a thread and just use that speed for everything else. Ades, and people like him are pros. They may mind, but they’ll do things properly. Most amateurs will start out enthusiastically, but over time become frustrated, and lose interest in changing gears. Think about it. You have gears for roughing. Then you have to change for finish. Then you have to change for roughing again. Over and over. Different speeds for different metals in the same project. Save up and get one with a gearbox. You’ll be happy you did.

I love screwcutting, the Warco Supermini lathe is sometimes a little bit fiddly setting and adjusting the change wheels compared with some other lathes but ok if you're not in a hurry. With your experience of Warco lathes has anyone else experienced the problem I have with trying to get a chatter free facing cut. I have worked with many lathes, both in good condition and almost worn out, all with plain bearings and never failed to get a nice clean smooth facing cut. The Warco machine uses ball bearing head bearings and I can only think that these may be the cause of chatter unless I take great pains with speed, tool shape, and advancing speed.

Ade, firstly I would like to thank you for the time and effort you put into your videos and how you make them so easy to understand. I am looking at purchasing a Warco WM16 belt driven milling machine and wanted your opinion. Whilst looking at your videos, I got hooked on your lathe videos as well. This made me also look at purchasing a Warco lathe. I have owned a Hobbynat MD65 for years and although it works perfect, the toolpost is its weak point in as far as little is available in for QCT holders. The WM180 has the same centers as the MD65 but only has a tool height of 65mm. The footprint is roughly the same. I was comparing the spec of the WM180 and the WM240 and was thinking that if I am going to buy a new lathe, I might as well get one bigger than already have, however you seem to do all sorts of turning and milling jobs on your 180. Is there a reason you purchased the 180? If you changed would you go for a larger one or do you stick to the 180 for its compact footprint?

I just got my lathe shipped from China and it turns out to be exactly the same as yours, only it's not a Warco but a WM210v, with a 38mm spindle bore, MT5 in the back plate and 850w motor. Very pleased so far with accuracy, but after roughly three to four hours of duty, one of the belts snapped. I did think they were a bit tight, but did not adjust them. I have ordered a couple from the UK and they should be here on thursday. Could you please do a video on belt tensioning? This I have heard is a science on its own, but since you have changed your motor once, i´ll accept any advice coming from you. Thanks :-)

Thanks for your support. i will touch on this subject soon . the basic idea is to tension until you get no belt slip under heaviest cut you would normally do and then leave it at that. keep the belts clean and free from oil to avoid contamination helps . unless your belts were stupidly tight i think you may have had a duff belt. use a quality belt like a Gates will help.

Gear changing went OK thanks to your great video and my carriage does move the expected pitch per revolution, but my cutting is still all over the place. Do you show any actual cutting in any of your other videos. The instruction manual seems very odd to me. It makes no reference to the dial indicator!, telling you to stop the motor at the end of each cut then reverse it to return the carriage for the next cut with the lead screw still engaged. Is that how you'd do it?

Do you know a way to get a thread which is close to these imperial TPI's? Thank you for your very informative videos.

This particular lathe can be bought in an imperial version in the uk . I think it just uses an imperial lead screw and probably a different thread dial and gear for the longditudinal axis . It may be possible to get these parts to convert . My manual does give the set up charts for the imperial version that does cover the TPI you need . It may also be possible using some custom gearing on the geartrain . Cheers Ade.

I see the gears running here true. In my lathe, the joiner sleeve is out of center, by more than 0.2mm. Does anybody have an idea, where to puchase better ones?

Hi Ade, Any chance you can tell me the diameters of the two gears that are used for the threading dial. I need to make the gears for my self, knowing the outside diameter would help me determine the pitch of the gears. 42t & 40t Cheers Adam

they all vary a bit , the principle is similar using the charts for your machine , it is mostly far less work on gearbox lathes

How do I screw cut a worm on my warco wm290v lathe worm is 2.5mm pitch and 36.6 mm outside diameter

I think the 290v has a separate feed and lead screw so it will be different to my lathe. the basic principles will be the same though .
