Hi, my name’s Keith and I have a Lathe problem.... ‘Hi Keith!’.
Come on just bite the bullet and do the full restoration now if you just do a paint job as you use it it will bug you seeing all of the little things needing repair and you will get to the point where you just have to fix it so just do it now and get it over and done with it’s not like you don’t have another lathe to use in the meantime but just don’t take two years again like your last one 🤣
Are you running a shelter to home good ole neglected and unappreciated great piece of machinery? now I call that a noble and giving heart. Thumbs way up Sir!!
Dear Mr Keith this is an outrageous example of tool envy promotion! Cat among pigeons, sir. This piece of kit is the equivalent of the quake that results in a tsunami, that’s a lot of responsibility to take on board. Best wishes to you but I think that you have started something quite unstoppable.
The reason there are so few of them, is they were not as productive, easy to use, or as versatile as the Monarch ee. Try them both, and you will see what I am saying.
Abom has a tap wrench addiction and now we know Keith has a lathe addiction. Next thing you know, Fenner will start collecting girly posters.....oh wait
The variable speed your are talking about is what we call "Variomatic" we also had a car "DAF" with this variable principle..........
hello im late posting as im sure you know by now spedometer cable replacement kits are available at all auto parts stores under 10 bucks,...measure ten times and cut once,...mike
My hobby rebuilding old stuff... clocks tools etc.. the old stuff is gorgeous.. just redid power switch on a 35 year old chopbox.. simple switch...no electronics to fail.. not like my variable speed jig saw... I bought 3 replacements. Switches..not repairable....
hi Keith you forgot two others DS&G (DEAN SMITH & GRACE) The Rolls Royce of tool room lathes and the Smart & Brown. the 1024 is a joy to use and built like a tank the top slide is something in the order of 10" long never wear it out. I guess I am biased being from the old Country LOL stay safe love you work
I worked on a Rivett for two years rebuilding Transmission parts. I made fixtures and jigs. I even offset a lathe fixture to hold pumps so I could face the rotor area. Then skim cut the face. Then touch off a tool post grinder that was mounted directly to the cross slide. The finish on the face of the pumps looked Blanchard ground.
It appears Keith may have a magnetic personality which attracts older machines in need of adoption. This Rivett is a class act!!!!!
And congratulations on your new purchase
That thing is sweet!i love the speed adjustment and the fact that it has a collet chuck
Congrats!!!
Hi Keith , My name is Bob an I am the proud owner of a 1020S also serial 123 date 1949 it is a great machine, I was told mine came from the Navy also it has a lot of accessories and special cabinet for storage.
Keith I am always amazed at your incredible in depth knowledge of all of these different machines. I get it that someone can become very familiar with one or two machines because of years of using it ect. But it seems that no matter what it is, you just seem to always have a complete command of all aspects of the machine. I find all of your content fascinating and so well presented.
Wow very nice ild love that thing it looks supper ridgid and strong
Very neat! Never heard of Rivett. Interesting features. Looking forward to watching you use it.
Awesome, Keith! I've been pining for one of those for years.
