Re: 1726 Beginning Week Three

Well...it maybe could...but we did use the lathe for some parts, like making the bearing holes in the roller end caps, and making shaft size adapters for the sprockets onto the transmission and motor shafts, and the output shaft for the Fisher Price little gearbox we made.

I think everything except that output shaft could be made without the lathe, if you were good at drilling holes into round things, and getting them properly centered.
