Brilliant. I think building the machine would be more fun than using it.

I've ordered some of the parts...

I'm planning to build it. I've ordered the leadscrew, nuts and bearings from Enco when they had free shipping in January. I'm hoping to incorporate it into a lathe project I'm working on, rather than have another separate tool, but I may just build it like the plans show except I'll make it to use the full 72" screw length rather than cut it down to 55" like the plans show. Also may put a gearmotor to engage instead of the the crank for long continuous turns.
