ProfessorM - Thanks!! I totally agree about the tool height. I believe the bed on the shopsmith is much lower than a normal lathe. My mistake was mounting the "surface plate" directly to the bed without raising it.....That being said, it has worked out real well all in all. I get a little "chatter" when taking big bites on harder woods, but a little finese takes care of it.......pm me about the tool, I'm always interested in ideas......thx

Fish Rule!
