Great thanks!They are universal left or right so far as I know.

I really liked the motor and speed control of a nova 1214, but the tailstock was so sloppy I moved the motor to my first lathe, a jet 1015. Since I got both used I didn't worry too much about value retention and moved the controller to a bigger enclosure and added a hall effect sensor for RPM. It's still an awesome spindle and pen lathe so I think it was a good move.This is my mess this morning. My 2 lathes, sharpening, and packout tower I use for turning.
I finally got off my butt and got the project started. Originally I was only going to do 16 boxes. Standing in the store 16 seemed like plenty. Now not so much. That's why I left room to add the rest.They are universal left or right so far as I know.
Very clever!I made a new rack for my tools and accessories.
Put it on 24” full extension drawer slides so that I can move it away from the chuck area when turning.
