The Home Machinist!

certainly a nice looking machine I almost bought the same model but talked myself out of it

PVC can't take the pressure pulsations normally found in a a compressed air system if you want quick and easy. look at what SMC has to offer. I have 0.75 Black Pipe in my shop it wasn't expensive. all one needs to do is rent the tools from the local rental place. I run my shop air at 140psi

you can use a ISO grade 32 most tractor dealerships stock it. Its used for hydraulic systems and industrial gear reducers. It's not a good idea to use multigrade automotive engine oil, the additive packages in it can do weird things inside the gearhead.

nice machine I just purchased a CT089 from Busy Bee. I am so far happy with it I have only a couple hours with it hope to spend more quality time in the new year....Its stand was made from plate and reasonably heavy. I wish it was made 2 inches taller with a wider base
