Gingery Lathe casting stock..
Hi..
I'm building the Gingery lathe and alot of the 'stock' called for for the wood patterns are 3/8" and 5/8".. Most wood is standard in 1/4"..1/2" and 3/4".exept for plywood which is harder to use in crafting and needs more finish..I checked hobby stores and expensive in 'modeling stock".. Anybody modify the plans to use standard 1/2" and 3/4" stock (white pine etc)?? I suppose the headstock center would have to be recalculated and adjusted also.. Any suggestions appreciated..Joe |
