I got a little bored camping so when I got home I decided to build a portable lathe set up.

Looks cool......nice set-up. How do you sharpen your tools?

Is the lathe fasten down? Do you trailer it or just pull it behind the car?

Have fun and Enjoy.

That make it very easy. Be sure to fasten that down tight......Don't need it rolling around. Now all you need is either a place in the woods to find some of natures treasure or a store with a big parking lot. :wink:
Somehow, I just can't see you camping infront of the Woodcraft/Rockler store.

:biggrin:

Did you purchase the cabinets or were they a refurb from something you found?[/QUOTE

The cabinets were extra nut and bolt cabinets that I had at work. They fit perfect on the wagon. I then cut a slab from my sawmill that I used for the top.
