New Pm1236 Lathe

Today I got a chance to install the tool rack on the back splash...

While I was at it, I intended to install the improved carriage lock, as noted in this thread...

So it seems the DRO slide on the cross slide interferes with the operation of the improved carriage lock screw. I will remove the cover tomorrow to see if there is space to make the cover smaller and allow the screw to operate properly.

Over the weekend, I added a master power switch, as the lathe is sharing the circuit with the dryer. I can now flip one switch and turn off the machine, without having to open the electrical cabinet and turn off the internal circuit breakers. :)
