    Most ornamental lathes have their own little quirks (esp. home-made ones) and it's difficult to tell just what range of turning one is capable of without spending time actually playing with it.

    But there's something about the looks of that 'un that I really like. It'd look even better if it was put int thew right location... (such as in my shed. )
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

One pieces of GMC only good for a sander (used 3 times each time something broke. Scared the heck out of me), 1 leda, 1 nova and now her. Hubby says no more. What does he know hey?

    Toni,

    I bet there are a lot of turners out there who are green with envy and wished they had seen it first. Good onya Toni and I'm sure you will put it to good use.

    Cheers

    Toni,
    Thats a serious piece of lathe building, looks well made and should out last all of us.

    Lucky you Toni!
    You can now do ornamental turning on bottle stoppers and even your pens.
