Don't be fooled with DIY lathes: the toolpost – DIY mini lathe part 10

So I've built the toolpost for my DIY mini lathe for metals. It seemed an easy task, but as everything in this project I've got some setbacks. I hope you'll enjoy this video even though I had some failures in making what was supposed to be a relatively simple metalwork. Including some alchemy in trying to blackening the parts :) Bingewatch the full series:    • Home made Benchtop Metal Lathe - part 1   Previous episode:    • DIY metal minilathe [part9] Is it spinning?   Website (one day it will work properly again): https://accidentalscience.com
