It's as well suited to candlesticks as it is to table legs and bowls, and its features are truly user-friendly. Any speed you like from 0 to 3,200 rpm is at your fingertips, tracked precisely by a digital readout. Convenient cam lock levers let you move the headstock, 14-inch tool rest and tailstock without any tools, something so cool we think other makers should emulate it. We also like the built-in spindle lock for quick and easy chuck and faceplate removal. And here's something else we found invaluable: You can positive-index the spindle every 10 degrees to make fluting and veining operations a breeze. The whole machine is impressively stable, as its bed and legs are made of cast iron and it weighs it at more than 400 pounds, and we felt no vibration whatsoever, even at the highest speed. The legs are built to accept 2-by-4s in case you want to add a storage shelf, but there's already a handy tool basket included. It's a beautiful lathe, a pleasure to use, and we think you can't go wrong with it whether you're an experienced turner or contemplating your first pen. -Kris Jensen-Van Heste Includes 16" x 42" 1-1/2 HP Woodworking Lathe - 708359, 14" Tool Rest, 6" Face Plate, Spur Center, Dual-Bearing Live Center, Live Center, Tooling Knockout, Spindle & Indexing Locks, Safety Shield & Brake Resistor, Wrench.

Bill recognizes that many woodworkers either have hearing problems or will have hearing problems. Even if you don't, closed captioning offers you a way to view your video in a noisy shop environment. If you don't think your shop is noisy, you may need this feature more than you know! Introduction - The introduction gives a brief overview of the contents of the rest of the video. In this video Bill turn a natural edged bowl, a winged bowl from a piece of crotchwood, a square bowl from a piece of lumber, and he cores a set of bowls with the Kel McNaughton coring tools. After discussing the techniques for sawing the blanks for a natural edged bowl, Bill goes through the process of turning one, paying particular attention to the techniques that are different than those in a regular bowl.
