Post by: Kato on October 15, 2006, 07:25:48 AM
Not much to say yet, I´m in the middle of the electronics.

Here Is what i started with, and finally how it looks now.
Coverplates Not mounted in the pictures. Also the emergency button not there.

Wow - that looks very professional!  Quick question - how did you form the roll-over top?  I have a friend who's in the middle of an Orac conversion and is at the stage of making a new enclosure for it - now he's seen your pics he's green! - but fancies doing something similar.  Any tips would be great

As others have said very nice especially in the enclosure.

I have an Orac in storage, may never get around to it LOL....   They seem a fairly rugged little lathe.

That is some cover look neat . there is only one thing that bothers me the legs that hold the legs seems pretty small and might induce vibration to your machine an transmit it to your parts being turned . the base of a machine as to the most rigid part .
