OK, wise guy, back atcha -- tell me how you're going to mount that between
centers to get the 3" radius the OP wanted. g

Block on each end large enough to take the centers for the correct offset. I
thought that was obvious but apparently not.

The vibration from being so far off balance would tear it off those blocks in
a heartbeat.

Is there some rule that only the workpiece can be mounted between the
blocks? It's possible to add some deadwood/weight to counterbalance
the workpiece, no?

There's nothing to prevent using the concepts of that fack-tree made
eccentric chuck and making your own. The counterweights can be
attached to the end mounting blocks, they don't have to be full
length.

Howza bout gluing four blanks together and turning four quarter rounds
at one time? That doesn't sound impossible, is it?

Let's keep the bar set for the word impossible at its original "not
possible" setting. It makes communication easier.
