Radius turner
#6
It looks pretty beefy to me Shawn, I'd be surprised if chatter will be an issue. That long handle will definitely help with surface finish on larger radii.

You may want to consider adding some angled clearance cuts on each side of the pylon for work clearance. It'll allow you to swing around farther than without them. A radius cutter with a couple of improvements is one of the items on my project tutorial list. I was thinking maybe a worm drive for a crank or cordless drill and a calibrated feed screw on the tool.

Thank for sharing the pics, but you know we'll demand video of it in action, now that you've set the standard. Thumbsup
