Re: Official UK Distributor of My Shank Products

Wow.
I don’t really have to disclose anything further to you. In all honesty, I think your response is a bit rude and unprofessional for such an established supplier.

Anyone who has their hands on yours or other blanks can test them, it wasn’t a big deal.

I’ll move on. Thanks but no thanks!

I am in the UK, but it sounds like they’re not in the “widely recyclable” category for me. Would likely be landfill without knowing the material.
Thanks!

Re: Official UK Distributor of My Shank Products

Hey, I’m interested in using the pressed discs. I noticed here they are made from recycled materials, and on the website it mentions they’re recyclable. Are you able to share the details about specific type of plastic they’re made of? Would I have to return ship them to manufacturer for recycling? W...

Re: DinSync NC-V8 acoustic lathe

Sounds very interesting!

Has anyone got any feedback on how these stand up to regular short-run use? Is it for professional or limited to hobby use?

Hoping for more deep-dive reviews soon.

Has anyone reached 250hrs of diamond life yet?

Re: Welcome, Newbies! Say Hi in this thread!

Hey,

I’m relatively new to cutting, and got a heads-up to check out Lathe Trolls when I got a 2nd hand VR.

Thanks to everyone sharing the knowledge. Feeling excited to learn, and be part of this community.
