[Rick Smith]

I thought, after the foundry information, that Mr. Hart was giving classes out of the country...

Boy would that be scary on the inside of that bowl! I'm sure someone has a tractor they are not using.

Boy would that be scary on the inside of that bowl! I'm sure someone has a tractor they are not using.And a forklift to use as a toolrest.:eek:

[Ken Fitzgerald]

But what would you use as a skew?.........That thing would indeed be scary! And.........if you have a "catch"........there wouldn't be any stopping the lathe with it!

[Lee DeRaud]

But what would you use as a skew?What would I use as a skew?!? My momma didn't raise any fools: we already signed up Tyler for "skew duty".:p

[Bernie Weishapl]

LOL :p Lee that is a good one. I can see Tyler doing the skew thing.

[John Hart]

Geez!!! I've seen pics of people doing these big bowls (even Jim Ketron in a kilt!!) but I've always wondered....What do you do with them when you're done?

Cool find Rick!:)

[Jeremiah Jordan]

Geez!!! I've seen pics of people doing these big bowls (even Jim Ketron in a kilt!!) but I've always wondered....What do you do with them when you're done?

New bathtub anyone? But that is so cool. I wonder how big of a bowl a Cat 988 that I used to operate, can turn!

[Pat Salter]

Now if only I could read German (i think that's what it is:eek: ). They had a couple of pages of pics in the AAW magazine last year on this. I think the guys did this to drum up more interest in woodturning. I left my copy of the magazine at work so I can't give you many details. Awesome project. I noticed that in the early pictures the handles on the gouges were just big ugly sticks but later they padded them. Gee, I wonder why???:D

[Dick Strauss]

Is that guy turning a hot tub?

[John Bailey]

If someone hasn't already done it (can't imagine we don't have some German readers here) I'll have my wife translate it Monday.

John that would truely be appreciated.

[John Miliunas]

Well, just don't let Andy get his mitts on it!!! He'll have every store within 25 miles of him completely sold out of ice cream!!!!:eek: :D :cool:

[Chris Barton]

I knew he was a double agent! He is searching the dumps of the motherland looking for wood!

[Larry Klaaren]

If you go back to this guys home page,

http://www.peter-andres.com

and click on portrait, then projekte, you can look at some projects that are a little larger than normal. You can't tell the scale so much on the first one, but the vase with the Munro tool, and the Saule project, show the lathe he uses for these big projects.

If you to to the home page, then click on portrait, then fotogalerie, he has some really nice turned work.

Maybe ya'll had that figured out, but just in case you were interested.

My German is not good enough to translate with the correct tenses, etc.

[Andy Hoyt]

Hah! White iron strikes again!
