[QUOTE="gandalfpc, post: 129715, member: 859"] Finally got my lathe, been mucking with it for a few days - Yesterday I managed to snap the stummel shortly before finishing it, today I managed to turn a good long stummel only to snap it off while attempting to carve the bowl (nothing like failure at high speeds - made the mistake of trying to rough out the bowl from a square without support of the tailstock - silly rabbit... next time I will cut it to an octagon first...) Think I have it pretty much figured out now - getting the third briar block ready for the lathe now - wish me luck :) [/QUOTE]
