Thanks Greg for looking into dropping it down to 2 inches.
Was wondering if there is a way to get a 2 inch diameter for making Christmas ornaments?
I agree with John Keeton, stick to the review with out all the unnecessary jibber jabber. Another suggestion is to hide all the clutter in the background. You could hang some curtains around your...
I have two solutions. 1, knock the handle off the gouge and do as you mentioned in the original post, or 2, go to an electrical supply store or a big box store and get some red, orange or green...
Buy it from One Way. Less hassle in the long run. Have owned one for many years.

Eric,
Go to a welding shop and have a wrench made.
Dennis Nagle,
What kind of a lathe do you have that weighs 4008 lbs.?
Post a picture please.
I have my tools (table saw, jointer, sander and more) in the same type shed you are using, they have been there for years and I have had no problems. Protect the cast iron with something, I use WD...
While attending a class at Arrowmont in 2012 I used two Robust lathes, one being the sit down lathe, both very good machines. If I was in the market for a new lathe I would buy one.
Jim,
I have 2, neither bolted down. If all 4 feet are not making equal contact with the floor it will vibrate. Of course if you are turning out of balance pieces it will vibrate regardless.

It is very easy with the programs that came on your Mac, by using iPhoto, Pages (the word processing program on the mac) and Preview,if necessary. Open pages click on File, new, Page Layout,...

Thanks, Jack
