Internal Spindle Stop for the Mini Lathe - Making a Lathe Depth Stop

Video Description

Recently I had to make a bunch of parts all to the same lenght and thought to myself how nice it would be to have a depth stop for the lathes spindle so I don't have to measure and adjust every single piece. The spindle stops you can find on the internet work basically all the same but there was no design that pleases me so I came up with my own. I hope you enjoy the build process. Let me know what you think about the design in the comments and feel free to ask an give some feedback. Many thanks to RÖHM Germany who supported me in this episode with a brandnew revolving center from their slim line. This new center fits just perfect to my small lathe.
