I need to convince my wife that I "need" that much lathe. |

Just send all those cutoffs to me and I'll put 'em to some use. Ha ha! In all seriousness I throw very little away. That which I do toss gets burned in a wood stove in the backyard with the kids and a few marshmallows. Better to resaw off what you don't need than to plane into useless chips. That's what I tell myself anyway Oh yeah - nice tray. -- -Mike- |

Saved. I wonder if the router collet extension can stress the router bearings from the added leverage? |

IOW, don't get in a hurry and try to force the cut. Take only enough material fast enough to prevent burning. Lew |

I keep drooling over the Powermatic 3520B. I need to convince my wife that I "need" that much lathe. "IF" you are not turning now and think you would like to get into turning, Turning is a whole different aspect to woodworking and a fortune can be spent on equipment and tools before you even know whether you will like it or not. I would strongly advise to buy close to entry level, but a decent brand, lathe and start off with carbide tipped tools, something equivalent to "Easywood Tools"". You really only need 2-3 of their tools to turn almost anything and they do not require any sharpening equipment. I have owned 2 different lathes for 30 plus years and never really got into turning until the last 5-6 years. It takes years of practice to become as proficient with a lathe as you are with a table saw. You may not like it or have the patience. |
