Making and Using a Hand Powered Lathe

Making and Using a Hand Powered Lathe Tube. Duration : 9.17 Mins.


Making a using a simple hand operated wood turning lathe, i didnt add a treadle to make it a foot powered lathe on purpose as i want to limit the components parts needed to operate it, apart from the fact, it's a HAND POWERED lathe and midway between the historical bow lathe and bodgers pole lathe, it's only ever going to be used to turn small items suchs as bobbins, stool legs etc, not bowls and other larger items, the long screw will eventually be replaced by a length of threaded rod or i might braze a T-bar to the head to make tightening and releasing the centre a bit easier.
