>Tony,

Weird, I just posted above looking for nuts as well. The local Ace hardware here has 1X8 nuts. Maybe yours does as well.

>How about the faceplate that came with the lathe?

- - -

I have been turning wood for about 12 years now. I consume about 20 hours a week in front of the lathe making primarly bowls and platters. I keep thinking about making other "stuff" on the lathe, and ocasionaly I even get beyond the thinking part. But I take the most pleasure in bowls and platters. I have most every tool availble for the lathe but I am always looking for a new tool. More than looking for a new tool I am looking for a new hunk of wood. While a corner woodworker (sometimes called flat woodworker) can never have enough clamps, I find most woodturners can never have enough turning stock. The woodturning club I belong to has a Christmas party each year and part of that party is a "grab bag". We bring in a turning, that is judged by the people who come to the party. The people who make the top three turnings get prizes (like sandpaper or a tool). The real prize though is the exchange of turnings that comes from this colection of turnings. Some of my most cherished turned objects are the ones I have recieved from these grab bags.

>Also, My 2005 Grizzly catalog on page 95 has some light wieght (1x8) aluminum face plates at a bargain price.

Model H6436 4 in. only $6.95

Model H6437 6 in. only $9.95

Sounds like a bargain to me.
