Need more power

[John Tomasello jr]

My lathe just does not have the power to knock the corners off this small piece of sycamore.

[Dennis Ford]

I bet it does not have enough capacity between centers either!:p

[Baxter Smith]

Use your chainsaw or axe before mounting it.:)

[Richard Madison]

Consider a diesel powered lathe. Am told they get good mileage.

[David E Keller]

what kind of pen kit are you using for that little spindle blank?:eek:

[John Keeton]

John, you just need a bigger roughing gouge!!!!:D:D

[Roger Bullock]

Quarter saw it, keep the flat sawn and send me the rest.

[Steve Mawson]

Like to meet the person that will pick the blank up and put it on the lathe.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

[Steve Schlumpf]

Pretty much all over except the screaming! Post photos once it get it roughed out! I am assuming you are turning a vase, right?

[Brian Effinger]
