need help in Boise

Oct 27, 2009 5 Replies

Hello,



I have blanks blanks comming from my neighbourgh tree (softwood), they were really attached to the tree and asked me to make a bown for each of their kids (7 in total!).



anyhow, the problem is that my $200 harbort Freight late is not capable of truing such heavy blanks:( (10" diametter, 6/7" depth)



Is there someone around Boise with a large enough lathe who would be willing me to host me for a couple of hours so that I can rough turn the blanks?



Thanks, Cyrille at hp dot com


A real man would be telling his wife he needs a new lathe right now. :)

I can do it on my mono tube , what is your problem ??? Chicken ????
