thanks man you and me both.

I just built this lathe from Roy Underhill's plans a few months ago. I really enjoy using it. I ever build another one though, it will probably be a bungee lathe. The rocker arm is fiddly, but it's definitely more traditional looking than a bungee. Other thing that drives me nuts about Roy's lathe is that cross piece down low on the lathe! It really tends to get in the way of the board you step on to operate the lathe. Can be frustrating. I actually tried to use the lathe to turn a bowl recently - the rockers arm design doesn't work for bowls. They have too much momentum. I clamped some boards to the uprights and attached a bungee, and it worked much better. Good luck!

For when you go for the more mechanical lathe, you can easily repurpose an old bike freewheel (the back wheel, as long it's not the kind that brakes with a reversing of the pedals) as either a flywheel or an intermediate mechanism that will let the lathe keep turning when you stop pedaling/treadling. (Just make sure to install it the correct way around!)

that is what I plan on doing also keeping the gearing so one can put a lot of power into the fly wheel!

Almost done, just a little bit more...no pressure but you know snow ❄️ will be here soon 😂😂😂 and we want to see what you will making with it... hmm will it work in the snow🤔🤔🤔

Starting to come together very nicely James. Can't wait to see the end result. I have a motorized lathe but don't use it any longer. I find it way to messy to use in my small shop even with a shop vac. Plus, I wasn't very good at it.............. :)

Looking really good, been meaning to build one for small spindle work for many years. Here is a tip which you can either trust me or try it for yourself. Do not even try to use Carbide insert tools on a spring pole lathe... it will lead to a massive amount of frustration. Because of the reciprocal action you need to slice through the work not scrape. All you need is a large Flat Gouge, a detail gouge, I recommend a 1" Skew and lastly a parting tool. Ben Orford is currently sharing allot of great info and he showed his spring pole late in use. While I do not necessarily agree with the tools he chose I have seen all sorts of real simple cutting tools used on spring pole lathes. The English Woodworker also made a Bench top spring lathe for small work and that is a great option for really small shops. I love the finish that the slicing action leaves and the tool marks should become part of the design in my opinion, no sanding needed just some burnishing with shavings. Hope you have a blast with it.

@WoodByWright

I am of the same mind. I much prefer a sharp cut on the slower speed lathes.

Holy cow that is so darn cool! I wish i had noticed this video sooner... That's so dang cool, i have got to try this out! Are you building with plans? And are the plans out for sale? Awesome job as always, keep it up!

looks like we have a similar if not the same mortis/tenon marking gauge, mines pretty, body made from a burl, crappy finish though. As for the turning tools, I found a 8 piece Japanese set for stoopid cheap at the local pawn and could not pass them up. Can't find the brand anywhere, just to see what kind of stealing I did... but no lathe yet... Can't wait to see you run that thing.

What's your opinion on the manual table saws? Seems like a homemade one would be right up your alley.

@WoodByWright

That is on my list to make some day. I want to make a fly wheel that I can connect a table saw, joiner, router table, or band saw.

One day i will build something similar, although i prefer the treadle type with a flywheel. For now, the elektrickery is very helpful. By the way, the tools you have arent the most traditional for use on a pole lathe. Those are hook tools. You might want to look into those. There are a few videos on those on youtube. I think the channel is harry rogers. He blacksmiths those tools himself. Check it.

Wood By Wright lots of light and dust collection provided by the wind. Great reasons to work outside!

Looks like it's coming along nicely! If it's going to be a tear down style, any thoughts on wedging the through tenons to help keep things held together just in case the "clamping" in of the work piece produces outward pressure? They're long tenons so it shouldn't be an issue, but just a thought (dont tell Roy Underhill...) :-)

Hi, glad to see you building a pole lathe, but I have a couple of concerns. 1. Is the pine you are using going to be heavy and robust enough? 2. You don't seem to have enough gap under the bottom stretcher to provide enough travel for the treadle. Hope it goes well, Craig

@WoodByWright

6 жыл бұрын

yup. it is light enough to carry in one hand. you only need to worry about the weight with a motor. and yes the board comes up on the far side of it so there is lots of room. the design actually comes from Roy Underhill in Pop Woodworking.

Is it just me or is James to wood working as Bob Ross is to painting?
