    Love the way you cut and assembled. Makes for a no mistake put together without relying on a tape measure for every part of the project. Great video, keep them coming.

  • @MikeTremoulet

    This is fascinating; I've never seen or thought of using so many referential measurements, using one part of setup to reference all of the other sizing and cuts. Great build!

      +Mike Tremoulet thanks, Mike! In a project like this with so many dependencies for spacing it really makes things so much easier to not rely on the tape measure.

    looks awesome Brad, I agree with you that the continuous grain on the drawer fronts is a nice touch and a good reminder for me to be aware of that kind of detail in future builds!

    Man, the way you installed the drawers using spacers is so smart! It really simplified the process. Drawer installs have always given me so much trouble, I'll have to give this a shot next time. Great video!

  • @oliverdunn1626
    @oliverdunn1626 7 років тому

    I ordered the plan and have it about 80% complete (awaiting delivery of the drawer slides), and feel that with over 35 years of woodworking experience I can say - - - one of the EASIEST builds I've ever done. I'm also a professional turner, so I modified the buildout to include an on-board vacuum system. (BTW the Stanley 8 gal/6 HP fits the small side of the bench like a
    glove. Incredible. Your referential measuring system is the cat's whiskers. Worked like a champ. It's so simple, I wish I'd thought of it years ago.

    Great job Brad! Watching this is like deja vu... I just published my video building a stand with storage for the exact same lathe! It was really cool to see how you encountered some of the same design requirements that I did and how we both attacked them differently. I like the continuous grain on the face of yours. I went with continuous book matched grain running vertically on mine. I swear we were sharing a brain during this!

    • @defmise10
      @defmise10 7 років тому +1

      Cool, yeh right now I have my lathe on a open stand that I built when I bought it. It has a open shelf under the lathe and of course anything I put down there gets covered in dust when I'm turning. Also because of the vibration of the lathe stuff normally falls off of it to. So drawers would be much better and offer much better storage options. Thanks for idea and video. ;)

    In the video and the plans there are brief references to dust collection. Video: “I sized the top to allow for dust collection in the back...”. Plans: “It is 42” wide and 21-1/2” deep to give extra space for dust collection...” Please clarify or expand upon those comments. Thank-you.

    • @Fixthisbuildthat

    Great video from start to finish!
    I just have one issue with a lathe workstation that small ..... I've only been turning for 2 years, and I already have way more wood blanks than would completely fill every single drawer in that thing! If you keep on with the turning, you'll want to put a bookcase or two to the right for your "landing zone" and fill it with plastic shoe boxes full of blanks!
    Also, if you cut fresh wood or obtain more green wood, storing it in the shop to help it acclimate will help dry it more neatly ... make sure to scrape wax away from the sides of the blanks, but not the end grain, to reduce splitting and checking...
    Having a place to store your fresh cut green blanks that you've pre-formed on the lathe and are waiting for them to dry is a good idea too ... stuff em in a paper bag along with a good pile of the shavings that came off the turning and put em on the shelf. Take them down once a month to turn the blanks (to avoid fungal growth) and check their weight. Write the initial weight of the piece on the bag ... update it each month with the new weight as it dries ... when the weight doesn't change from one month to the next, it's dried and fully acclimated to your shop. This is the time to finish turning it to final size and apply your finish.

    Can you add an extension to this lathe and will it fit on this stand with an extension, I'm getting one from Rockler with the extension for father's day

      You would likely have to fashion a pop up extension like a folding wing and attach to the side.

    Does the stand "walk" at all when turning something somewhat uneven? I'm wondering if it would be better to have the stand firmly on the ground when in use rather than use locking casters.

    In the interest of cost, would it be an acceptable idea to substitute MDF for the plywood?

    Nice job on this lathe stand! I have built a couple versions of both your drill press stand for a drill press and a small band saw as well as a couple flip top stands for various tools and space saving abilities. How is this lathe stand holding up for you 2-3 years later? Is it solid enough and is the weight of the lathe an issue at all?

    Does the 1/4” ply seem weak for the bottom of the drawers? I’ve been thinking about making this but would worry the drawers aren’t strong enough.

    Great vid! You inspired me and last night finished assembling the carcase and am going to make the top tonight. In terms of location of the mounting holes for the lathe (I have the exact same lathe and love it), I was thinking of mounting it to the right end of the top as opposed to the left end like you have it so I can more easily get around the end of the lathe when hollowing out bowls. This would leave the accessory space to the left of the lathe. What advantages do you see in mounting to the left as you have, or is it strictly personal preference? Thanks again for the great vid.

      +Brian Schmid hey, Brian! That's awesome that you're making one, can't wait to see it. I put the open space on the right mainly because I'm right handed and it felt natural to have it there. Also if I need to remove the tailstock then I can just set it down. But now that you mention that, it could be beneficial to have it on the right vs the left.

    Nice stand! How did you cut the slot in the tool holder for your parting tool?

    • @Fixthisbuildthat
      @Fixthisbuildthat  7 років тому +1

      +Troy Meredith thanks, Troy! I flipped the board on edge and put it against my miter guague and cut the slot on the tablesaw. Then I took a small cutoff and glued it back in on the edge to keep the parting tool from falling out.

      Ah, I see the glued up portion now. I thought you found a way to cut a prefect slot without having to do that. lol. Thanks for the info.

    How tall is it minus the top and casters? Just the carcass. Your plan description doesn't say the height.

    Hey bud....excellent content, I just bought the plans for this cabinet I just have one quick question what kind of plywood did you use? I know is 3/4" but is not pine or sanded....we'll wait for your response thanks Brad.....don't stop making videos..

      It looks like Baltic birch plywood. You can tell by the high quality and thin layers.
