for a while now ive used the current set up on my lathe.
and found its a bit of a pain TBH.
as the carriage moves along the delivery nozzle will move due to the thick plastic pipe.
and you have to keep repositioning it over the cutter tip and its gets a little annoying.
what i would like to do it drill and tap a hole in back of carriage.
so i can mount a bracket to be able to mount the delivery pipe and tap to it.
something like this here
then connect the clear pipe to an adaptor then some sort of flex or coiled pipe
from the adaptor to the delivery pipe/tap..
so what im looking for is a small diameter of a flexy coil pipe
like some coiled air hoses you can get
never seen a smaller diameter though......
any ideas fellow members.
