Craftsman Lathe
by admin on Monday, March 31st, 2008 | No Comments
can a wood lathe be used on solid acrylic tubing?
im wondering if a wood lathe (such as an older craftsman type) can be used to lathe a peice of solid acrylic ranging from 1/2" to 3" in size
Yep.
Have turned various "plastics" ( w/ old craftsman lathe).
Same basic turning techniques except for slower speeds.
More scraping than shaving to avoid chattering.
Use a ball bearing dead center.
A cup center will just melt in.
Depending on piece , used drill chuck. faceplate, spur & screw live centers
Tools have to be sharp as always & turn as close as possible to final contour since you can do very little "shape"sanding .
A few drops of water will help clear the cuts & if finish sanding is needed ,you can use wet/dry paper.
Up the speed a little & buff w/ auto polishing compound & finish off w/ dry soft cloth.
Tip I got for plexiglas was to "flame" lightly w/ a torch get a high shine.
Best regards
