I have a Woodfast Cobra two bar lathe that has served me well for a number of years. Recently I have been doing a reasonable amount of off centre work. Even with attention to counter weights etc it is at times difficult to dampen the vibrations enough to run the lathe at the speed I would like.
When I purchased the lathe Woodfast had support legs that went between the bars and the lathe bench top, two on each side. At the time I did not see the need.:(( I have contacted Woodfast but they no longer have stock or any interest. Is there anybody out there that has them could could provide a photograph that may help me to get a set manufacted?
If there is a better way of stabilising the bars I would be interested in hearing of that.
This is my first post and am not sure of the protocol but thanks in advance for your assistance
