    Outstanding workmanship Doug! The lathe it's almost done and it's amazingly beautiful, so I can imagine how is going to look when its finished.

    All the best

    Thanks wizard69
    The lathe was not built from a kit, it is made from solid bar stock materials, it was drawn up in cad but a lot of changes in the design were made while machining and fitting the parts.

    Thanks Doug

    Doug,

    Did you make this because you wanted a small lathe to use or as a great example of model making?

    Thanks Toni
    It is an actual working model, it has power longitude feed but none on the cross, I built it just for a challenge Toni, I have been working on cad designing a knee mill as a sister to the lathe, will be working on that pretty soon

    Thank You
    Doug
