Lathe HELP

probably others know how but im just a 12 year old with about 2 hours of machining time but that number will increase because i am getting my first lathe, good luck!
 
With an indicator you can put it in a gear, revolve the spindle exactly one revolution and determine what the per/revolution the saddle/tool advances. Then, of course, record that gear and it's advance.

The size doesn't matter as much as one may think, until now ive had a little atlas 10 inch wich has served me very well, and ive seen with my own eyes, stuff made with little lathes that are amazing, the experience is everything!!
