Hi guys, i want to know if someone have some link or website (or video), that teach me how made an homemade Lathe (with the copier addon), i already made an KMG clone of band sander, but now i want to add to my workshop some tool to lathe woods. i just need small size maximun 70-100cm long.

btw, is possible to get the same acurracy if made one myself vs buy from some store?

Thanks in advance,

I have a copier that came with my lathe, the table is home made, and the rest would not be to hard to make your self.
Will take photo later and sent to you.

You don't have plans for a drum sander ?

Do a search of this forum theres a few threads on lathe building with various materials, not much on copiers tho'
