  • Building a double spring pole lathe.
    See my blog: thequietworkshop.wordpress.com for more details.
    This is an adaptation of the double spring pole lathe that Roy Underhill wrote about in Popular Woodworking magazine.

    Nice work, so much of the woodwork I see on you-tube is done with thousands of dollars of power tools. Its good to see something being done with tools I can afford. Thanks for the video

    Love the ‘quiet’. You work efficiently and brought to mind Richard Maguire. I’ve a shave horse to build before my pole lathe but I’ve enjoyed watching and researching peoples varying takes on this ancient device. Although your moving bench would drive me bonkers!

      I was watching the bench too. I am in the process of building a bench (currently in pre-planning) and was leaning toward the Roubo anyway, but I think the torsion box Nicholson (spelling?) bench would not be a good fit for me.

    Beautiful quality work. I would have liked the video more if you had finished with a detailed "tour" of the completed lathe so we could see how all the various parts we watched you make fit together and served their particular functions.

      KarlBunker thanks Karl. Next time I make a chair I’ll shoot a video and give some more details.

    While I did enjoy the video, I would have liked to see more of the assembly/fit up towards the end.
    Underslung spring lathes are a nice idea for those without so much overhead space.👍

    Where do you get all this lumber from. And what type is it?

  • @rickschuman2926
    @rickschuman2926 6 лет назад +1

    Not a pole lathe; an under-slung spring lathe. Nice work as fits this sort of thing.

    Beautiful work, I very much enjoyed watching this video.
    What is the name of the tool that you use at 8:16?

    • @thequietworkshop3228
      @thequietworkshop3228  7 лет назад +4

      Schneur Roth Thanks. Glad you're enjoying it. That's a Stanley dowel jig #59. Most of the time I bore holes just using sight lines but for these wed he mortices I need perfect alignment. The #59 is a great tool for that.

      What is the name of the knot/pully system that you use at the 7:10 mark?

    • @thequietworkshop3228
      @thequietworkshop3228  6 лет назад +2

      Schneur Roth That’s a Trucker’s hitch or Trucker’s dolly. If you have a look at my video “Chairmaker’s hitch” it shows you how to tie one.

    Ok I'm only 2 minutes in, I appreciate the effort and i'll watch the rest of the video, but please please, stabilize that bench. It's wobbling so much it's defeating its own purpose. Ok I just watched the rest, this was not a pole lathe build video. It was a few pieces being worked on, and some joinery, which were all nice in their own way. And then Tada!!!! a completed pole lathe. But I've never built one, and I don't host YT woodworking videos, I just watch them, comment , and hopefully learn from them. So I got 2 out of 3 here, best of luck and much success to you.

    a nice quality video for an attempt at an Art award, but not very informative as far as really explaining and showing the build of a pole lathe

      Stephen Woolf good thing the video isn't titled or labelled as a "how to" of any kind

    It must have taken you ages to rip those boards, rather you than me lol I use hand tools as often as I can but when it comes to ripping down large pieces of timber that's when I use a power tool. I'm sorry to say this has got to be the least successful pole lathe I've ever seen, more a device for banging your head. After saying that your work and tool care is exemplary just a bad design.
