It worked a treat so I machined one up without resorting to welding bits and pieces together. I wanted a turner that could be operated from the front or back of the work and one that could be mounted in the tool post.Hello there
Very nice design. Yours looks like a Metre bed lathe, so we reckon the Ball Turner would indeed cope with fairly strong cuts.
Do U have any drawings which U may be prepared to kindly share.
Would immensely appreciate some assistance as the one we did eventually get to complete either can't cope with our machine or gives us very poor finishing cuts.
Look forward to a positive response
TIA
Kind regards
