I recently bought a new Chinese CJ0618 7x12 Mini Lathe, very similar to the classic Sieg C2 lathe which is sold under different names all over the world. I have a few plans for this lathe, but the main reason for buying it was to finally answer all the questions I get asking whether the Proxxon PD 250/e is worth the money, or if a Chinese lathe is a better deal.
In this video I need to fix the twisted broken and completely inadequate studs which mounted the motor to the bed casting. To get the lathe back up and running I needed a quick fix while I think about a longer term project to make a better mount.
