No I do not have a lathe yet? Any suggestions guys? I'm gathering info on what I'll need so any/all info you guys can suggest is appreciated. I have:
Benchtop drill press, Benchtop belt sander, 10" mitre saw, Benchtop Scrollsaw.
I don't own a bandsaw nor a lathe yet, but have read a few posts on the lathes. Do I need a bandsaw or can I get away with the scroll saw? Man there is so much to know? Obviously the lathe is #1.
I figured if I got a lathe I could get some cheap wood and practice with that. Can you use the large size dowels you purchase at Home Depot.....broom handles...etc..to practice with?
