Survey - Club Lathes

Northwest Woodturners

Oneway 1224

All positive - many pros turn on large Oneways and the small one performs, adjusts and has the same operating feel as the big ones. A few have expressed their pleasure and comfort upon learning they'll be demo-ing on a Oneway.

I've only turned on it once but really liked it. Excellent quality and should last as long as the club does. I think the members are very proud of it and take excellent care for it's security between meetings, cleaning it up afterwards, etc.

Cascade Woodturners - perhaps Neill will see this and provide the info on the Woodfast we have there - if he doesn't in a few days I'll try my best.

Martin,

The San Diego Woodturners has had a 16" Woodfast shortbed for a number of years. A club member made a nice stand that includes drawers for chucks, accessories and a grinder. It was a self-contained turning center.

For the last 5 years, we have held our meetings at the San Diego Woodturning Centre and we use their big lathes: Vicmarc 300, Stubby

Tennessee Association of Woodturners has a Jet 1642, which replaces a Nova

Hi Martin, The Lehigh Valley Woodturners has a Nova 3000, which nobody seems to like. We are currently saving for a Oneway. Tony Manella Tres.

The Tudor Rose Woodturners here in the UK use a Vicmarc 100. Everyone loves it but it does restrict you to only being able to turn small items

Regards

Paul
