Here's an interesting gadget

well worth looking at the video on the instructions page - I love the fact that anyone would develop such a thing.

One for the Christmas list?

i think Braveheart has tested this machine and wrote about it in woodturning mag, and JohnB also has one, though i dont think he has used it yet.

fantastic bit of kit but very expensive. You'd have to be confident of your market. Not a hobby tool IMO

Nope Steve it was me. Woodturning Magazine No 207 p76

And No Pete, I didn't get it free for doing the review. WT paid me for the review and I bought the review machine ( for a slight discount since they could no longer sell it as new) from ToolPost after the review was done. Hence the review was unbiased.

 

[pete honeyman]

have you had time to do anything with it? it would be interesting to see the results.

I have done quite a bit with it, but have also been busy with other projects so not taken many photographs. These are the ones that appeared in Woodturning magazine
