  11. i think ,big J has experience with all three types of machine, woodmizer/lumbermate and alaskan,, so I personelly appreciate his honest good reviews,,, I run a woodmizer Lt40(20yrs old) hydraulic,,,,and await his next chapter with a better mill,,,

  13. robin wood uses a traditional lathe ,and he turns big bowls, he uses a mandrel to wrap his leather rope around which gives more torque,,and a big larch pole,nobody said it was easy,,hence they moved on to the treadle lathe, then belt driven,then motor,,,if they could have used a motor they would have, !! i use both, mainly between centres on my pole lathe now adays! (rob copied his lathe from george laylies lathe which is in the reading rural life musuem).
