Benchmaster Horizontal as a lathe
#3
I was planning to keep both the lathe tools and the cutoff tool at the same height so I didn't have to move the table once I get the tool height correct. Might have to give that one some more thought now though. I have been thinking about building a lever action tailstock so I can drill a few holes and maybe hold a live centre in the drill chuck, not ideal but better than no support.

I'll probably never get this far but I'm enjoying the design process, Fusion 360 is so far an amazing bit of kit.
