Question Ship's steering wheel
G'day all . . . I would like to find out where to get information on turning a "Ship's Steering Wheel". Have been enjoying woodturning for the past 10 years. Enjoy, Vic

Thumbs up Ship's steering wheel
Robbo thanks, will try that site. Great humour Geoff!

Surely there is someone out there that has done this project?

Oh well will keep looking around, and WHEN I do find out will post it.

Geoff. THats an excellent site.(By the way where's Tenby Point?)

Vic .You might try looking up sites on making a spinning wheel. Very similiar in construction, and I think plans would be easier to find.
