I am considering a Nova lathe (one of a couple models), but I haven't been able to determine if they have a bore through the headstock spindle. If not, how do you get a stuck drive spur out of the spindle, since a knockout bar won't be useful?
Would love to hear what you think of the Nebula. I have the Comet II as well and want to upgrade at some point.I have the comet II, and my new Nebula will be delivered next week. I love Teknatool, great customer service.
Great to hear! It reads like it can be 110 or 220 but looking in the online manual I couldn’t tell if it is just a matter of replacing the existing plug…any idea?I'm totally blown away by the Nebula, an amazing tool. Very quiet, very hi-tech, very heavy, and best of all no belts to change.
That's darned smart. I ordered a Rikon 70-1824 in 110v. In Rikon's case, it's two different configurations.I have one of the Galaxy DVR 16/44 and that is all you have to do with it is change the plug and plug it in to 220 rather than 110. At startup the software identifies the current it's connected too.
Yup, just change the plug takes it from 1.5 to 2.5HP!Great to hear! It reads like it can be 110 or 220 but looking in the online manual I couldn’t tell if it is just a matter of replacing the existing plug…any idea?
It's a Morse taperYes Nova Teknatool lathes have a number 2 morris taper bored through.
I ordered mine but it hasn't arrived yet. I want to be ready to go when it does. Did you rewire yours? If so, would you mind sharing the kind of plug you got? Thanks!Yup, just change the plug takes it from 1.5 to 2.5HP!
