I built a fun little shop project to enhance my little wood lathe.  I posted it over in the wood turning enclave.

I love the ingenuity of my fellow WoodNetters, even if the idea was started from another post somewhere. Please keep us updated as to how well it works.

Very inventive.  It certainly makes those little lathes more appealing.

Sitting out in the barn gathering rust is a homemade lathe that will turn 8 ft. The ways are channel iron on edge and the legs are angle iron. Very heavy. I foolishly bought it at auction for $5.
