[QUOTE="Sasquatch, post: 86126, member: 509"] To turn any bent pipe, you have to work on it along the axis it's spinning, and like any pipe, anything below the shank can't be done on the lathe. I rough on a 1x30 sanding belt which allows a guy to tuck right in behind it so you have a lot of freedom. I'm pretty sure Rad does most of his roughing on a wheel (plate), but it amounts to the same thing. So if you look at a shape like a Peterson 315 for instance, that's a tough one cuz you have to turn the top but the angles are bitchy. [/QUOTE]
