In this video we take a field trip to fellow woodworker Lee's woodshop to help set up his new Laguna 18/36 lathe. While I was there we talked about how to prepare cut logs for turning into rough blanks. Which tools Lee prefers for turning bowls and platters vs candlestands or Christmas ornaments.
The Laguna Revo 18/36 is beautifully constructed machine that runs so quiet at low RPM'S you don't hear it running. The rotary dial operates smooth and precise to make adjusting your turning speed as easy as can be.
We also had time to look into Lees sanding and finishing station, which while simple, is efficient and well laid out to move easily through the steps and arrives at a gorgeous finish.
