Thank you! Have you ever made a top? Curious what tools you preferred to use.

Thank you! I enjoy turning, it's sometimes frustrating because you can ruin something really quickly but then other times things just work out. During this video, I had made and screwed up 5 or 6 tops because of the wood being bad inside or catches.

In all the years I've had a lathe I've never made a top... After this I'll have to rectify that! Thanks mate.

Keep an eye out for some of the older lathes, I paid $150 for this one. But then you will start to collect more and more tools, and every chunk of wood "could" be used for something on the lathe 😆
