wood turning taken to a whole new level

Post by rjent »

Make sure you watch this all the way through. This guy has taken it to a whole new level. Some great ideas. He does some bowl turning that you won't believe. CNC on a lathe

I didn't take the time to view the video. I hope to later. I'm replying merely to promote something relevant to the top of the stack, in front of the spam.

I watched this video and the thought of cleaning up the mess afterward was terrifying. The chips and dust looked to be about a barrelful a minute.

Other than that, it was extremely cool to to watch, expeically the segmented turning done in the second half.
Thanks much,

That segmented turning of the large vase was done on a Nova DVR lathe with the same motor as the PowerPro. It has different gearing, though. The PP won't get down to 100 rpm.
