Re: TU Gathering April 25-27, 2008
Nathan- I'm just thinking, if you have a wood lathe and some 'custom wood', I could maybe show anyone who is interested, how to make an "Australian Wheel', as opposed to an "English Wheel" - I can't believe some guys are still hand sanding convex/ concave curves-- Pete

Yes, Nathan does have a lathe, he might have just missed the message, Pete.

Re: TU Gathering April 25-27, 2008
KC, I had been thinking, I have never operated a wood lathe anyway, so this would be a big problem. Any lathe type work I have done is with a sharpened end of a flat file and a lump of wood fitted in a drill chuck- very crude indeed, it works, but safety wise, not something I should be showing how to do.pete

Re: TU Gathering April 25-27, 2008
Hey Pete, sounds like you will fit in nicely, with the unconvential outside the box way of thinking! I use my drill press for a vertical lathe, as well as milling machine. I bet you will take to operating a lathe like a duck to water, I am confident Nathan will let you take a crack at it. Personally, I admire the way you fabricate and make due with what is at hand. It is almost a lost art in this country. So please do share your knowledge and skill, I know it will be appreciated!
Bruce, yes it is becoming increasingly difficult to wait out the remainder. Try to stay calm!

Re: TU Gathering April 25-27, 2008
Kc - maybe we will just see what develops, it' not rocket science anyway. I know what you mean about fabricating something out so someone elses nothing, I get as much fun out of this as I do making baits.
Spike, it seems like forever (like a kid waiting for Xmas). I have most things sorted , just working on a hire car, hire is easy, the insurance is killing me (thieves) but you have to have it !! pete

Re: TU Gathering April 25-27, 2008
Pete,
I don't know the difference between an Austrailian wheel and an English wheel but I am interested in finding out. So, please reconsider showing us.
As far as the lathe goes, I don't think that you will have any problems learning. I'll be more than happy to show you what little I know about a lathe.
Gene
