I have just received the following piece of wood as a preset.
I thin it’s only around 240mm so I think it’ll fit on our lathe. I wouldn’t mind if there was a way to save the centre so I’m not just Turing it into dust. Any thoughts idea or advice?
There is but it’s expensive , if you had a hundred blanks to do it might be worth it but for one I would say no!

Perhaps put it on the list for a pledge drive if we ever want to get a few upgrades for the lathe, though?

Paul - perhaps call around some workshops to see if they have one e.g. Camden Shed.

It looks like could reverse engineer that. If couldn’t get one second hand, then could someone with metalworking skills could make one of those??
