“Rube Goldberg” would be proud. Interesting set up. I have a picture of my bicycle suspended between a farm tractor and a diesel F350 trying to get the seat post out so I feel your pain!
Thanks for your comments. This was a stop gap fudge hack to kind of level off a coupler. It worked okay if you take small sections off slowly. It's certainly not a replacement for a real metal lathe but in a pinch can work adequately well.

Thanks. Ha. I can see you doing that. If it works it works. I will get a metal lathe at some point. And a welder too.
did it work? I have one that may just need that treatment...
Great Job! Now i got a Template to convert my Woodlathe temporary in a Metal One 🤠👌 thanks for the Show👍
Thanks. Best of luck to you.
How did you get 500rpm? Pulley change, potentiometer, VFD? Thanks 😊
Pulley change. Unfortunately no VFD on this one.
@@drez20001 Thanks!
would be nice to see an indicator on the face or at least a closeup to get some sense of
the accuracy you achieved.
