Little turning job need help.
I bought my lad some wheels for his kart that he is building. Only thing is the hubs (steel) don't fit inside the wheel.
No problem I told him we will bung them in the lathe and take them down a touch.
I get him to clean them up and I bung them in the lathe and start to make a light cut to make sure there true and the motor pops (big flash) blowing
all the house electrics.
It could be a while for me to get around to finding the fault and the replacement parts. Its a Dc motor with variable speed.
Can any one help with a little lathe work close to Spalding lincs please ?
Thanks in advance

You're welcome to come and use my lathe - its a Warco1327 so should be up to it. I live at the other end of the county though, between Louth and
Wragby (say 7 miles north of Cadwell) , so its probably 50 miles each way. Let me know if you are interested and I'll U2U my address.
Regards
Hugh

Bottom of the M11 any good to you? CNC or ancient conventional late at your disposal.
