Fascinating - thanks for posting Biker.

Y'welcome, but if it hadn't been for grey-array's mate posting it on his Facebook wall I would have missed it.

Captain Crash posted a link to this bloke's Youtube channel (see above) and I have to say I am VERY impressed with this multi use workbench. I feel a variation on this project coming on in the future. :naughty:

I'd subscribed to this lathe fellows channel and saw that he's done a "part two" to the foot treadle lathe. Or maybe it's just a way of showing the prototypes idea he's done in the past. Anyway thought I'd resurrect this oldie in the hopes you'd like to see it.

Stay tooned right till the end, the outtake's rather amusing.

Cracking video, love watching someone put stuff together like that (one of my fave's id Dick Proenneke making his tools, cabin and furniture, great viewing). Like the ending there too - funny.

We could upset Turbogirl and the others in the sewing bee and start scrapping of sewing machines to make foot lathes! :pokenest: Open forum war!!!
