I need some advice

[Chuck B]

A friend wants to build this lathe HOME MADE BOWL LATHE
He's looking for a headstock that has he can attach a motor to similar to the one in my link He's also looking for something about 1 1/4" threaded with a #3 MT he wants to make 36" + turnings. He's checked E Bay & Craigs list so far no good?

Thanks

I've seen a number of them on ebay over the last year or so and would advise him to keep looking there if no one jumps in with one available.

Patience ... ebay .... more patience .... search the web for used equipment ... even more patience ... more ebay. It will appear ... sooner or later.
