Probably the best bang for your buck upgrade for this little lathe. Motor runs so much cooler than original and you can really feel the power. Turns a Unimat into a whole new machine.
HSS tool was a little dull and I didn’t have any oil on hand at the time. Since uploading I got some carbide and oil and was able to make some 1m cuts in aluminum and have done 0.25m cuts in cold rolled steel. Probably could do deeper on the steel but didn’t want to push it.
Even tried a 1/16 HSS parting tool and it works great.
