Making a DIY CNC Metal Lathe | The Lathe Chuck + First Tests | #6

This time I'd like to share with you some of my progress on my DIY CNC Lathe project where I mount the lathe chuck on the spindle. I also do some first tests of the axis movement, spindle runout. I made fly some chips too! At this moment this machine needs still improvements to be usable but I should be able to do this. Hopefully you will enjoy the video.
