Lathe project

I discover that Grizzly rebranded Seig KC6S

I asked they sent me a Manual and parts diagram.

Cleaning almost complete.
Now I will clean each sub assembly, replace the bearings.

 

Electrical panel latest.

 

How big is that Electric box? I need to make one soonish (maybe never)

I like that sturdy cast base they put this lathe on. You are making a really nice job on that retrofit.

There is a rule of thumb on electrical panels size. They always look 50% too large when you start, and turn out to be 20 % too small

Mechanically similar machines where sold by Knuth in Germany with a Sinumerik control.
The toolchanger is fiddly to adjust, if you have to take it apart, I can look for my notes on how to assemble it.
I have changed the pulley ratio to get a higher spindle speed.
