TREADLE LATHE

Описание к видео TREADLE LATHE

Finally got around to making a foot powered lathe for our homestead. The frame is a mix of yellow pine and red maple joined with through wedged tenons, draw bored tenons, and half lap joints.

The flywheel is made of reclaimed red oak from an old house down the street. Three layers are glued and screwed together after being edge joined with tongue and groove joints making a very heavy and stable wheel. The crank shaft and headstock pulleys axle are just some half inch steel rod running in bearings.

Plans for a similar lathe can be found in Roy Underhills book “the woodwrights guide”
