I picked up my $25.00 1960 lathe today and set it all up. I have to say, I like it alot. Im still not used to it yet since I never worked with a full size lathe before. So this is my very first large item made with a $25.00 lathe from ebay.
It is a baseball bat strictly out of my head (no template or specs.). I turned it from a piece of birch I cut down out of my back yard. I have to say also, I like the way the birch comes out. Anyway, I finished it with some 320 sp, coated it with ipswich pine stain and spray lacquer.
Comments are welcome and appreciated.
