This is a rework of Crayon Lathe 2 | Open Source TOYS by theevilorverlord.
I ended up importing the stl files into my cad software and used them as a base.
I wanted a simple wood lathe for turning 1:76.2 or 00 or 4mm to the foot.
This design was a good place to start, The head-stock is the same accept I have a direct drive motor for more speed, went to 8mm rods.
The tail-stock have used another head stock for future customization.
The saddle and tool rest a based on my big wood lathe.
All was printed in ABS rod holes had to be cleaned out to fit the rods.

added some low poly stl files of handles for the sewing machine needles.
I used the 2 part ones and glued together the a mix of acetone and ABS, then opened the hole up to about 1.8mm the warmed the needle and pushed it into the hole.
