I am the new owner of a 1984 Duracraft lathe (model WL-1236). Untill a few days ago I haven't turned since highschool shop class (about 1996). I've turned a few cheap pieces of wood into knobs and batons and whatnot, just getting used to different tools and speeds, and i did turn a short piece of Indian rosewood and aside from the smell was really easy to turn... I intend to turn it into a few rings.
I need a Jaw chuck for my lathe and a way to turn pre drilled piece of wood. Right now I have a spur, a cup center?, and plate for making bowls and things of such. I need parts and I'm not sure exactly what i need or where to get them? if anyone can offer me some advise or a few places to get advise or parts I'd appreciate it.
