Mini lathe chip tray

Collecting shavings for mini lathe operations requires attention to detail to prevent cutting fluid from accumulating on the surface. To address this issue, a deliberate design feature allows excess fluid to drip into the sump below. Additionally, a built-in brush at the end of the guides ensures they remain clean and free from debris. For effective maintenance, consider using EVA rubber or sponge tape along the guides; this will keep them spotless and prevent the main spindle from getting clogged with dirt. Designing mini lathes with robust thickness and superior mechanical resistance is crucial for optimal performance and longevity.
