Chisel Storage

I was having problems deciding how to store chisels on my Delta 46-450
Lathe. I thought they would be in the way if I mounted them in front, and I did not want to mount them to the wall where I would have to reach over the lathe while it was turning. Simple seems to be better. I mounted the holder to the lathe skirt with Harbour Freight 1/4X20 threaded rivets. Now I need to Paint the entire Outfit! |

What keeps the important ends from hitting each other when you remove or replace a tool? A minor redesign - add PVC pipe sections and some spacers between - or - just spacers between tools. charlie b |
Gouge/Chisel Storage for lathe - GougeRack.JPG (1/1)

This is my present approach to a gouge rack for the lathe. Shamelessly copied from ones I saw at a NH WW Guild lathe gathering - made a lot of sense. The back keeps you from slicing self on the tips that are up where you can see them. I have not fully finished it in the sense of permanently attaching the divider strips. As for shellac or dye, in your dreams... It sits on an old sewing machine table (cost - $0) and you can see that I set it at a steeper angle than the OSB scrap was originally cut (note that the bottom edge is not parallel to the table top). Chucks and faceplates can be piled in the void behind it, on the table top. It can also sit on an old typing table, but the sturdy steel typing tables with retractable casters get used for more general purposes once I've fitted them out with additional shelves, etc... And yes, the collection is a bit eclectic, ranging from 1952 shopsmith on one end to Glaser on the other... -- Cats, coffee, chocolate...vices to live by |
