    Hello My Turner. Welcome. What lathe do you have? Mine is a Nova DVRXP. I have made a number of attachment mods to mine. Love the lathe, its smooth and has plenty of power for its size. I especially like the 100 rpm low speed as I use it not only for large pieces (will turn up to 29 in. outboard) but also for applying finishes without wearing them. The most useful attachment is a Vicmark bowl hollower that I modified to fit on the ways. Another is a swingaway tailstock. Will post these at a later date.
