Hey Russ - Oneway problem???

Richard Allen

>Hi Russ

Can you give an update on the problem you were/are having with the motor on the Oneway lathe where the shaft broke?

Thanks

Richard

I have been turning wood for about 12 years now. I consume about 20 hours a week in front of the lathe making primarly bowls and platters. I keep thinking about making other "stuff" on the lathe, and ocasionaly I even get beyond the thinking part. But I take the most pleasure in bowls and platters. I have most every tool availble for the lathe but I am always looking for a new tool. More than looking for a new tool I am looking for a new hunk of wood. While a corner woodworker (sometimes called flat woodworker) can never have enough clamps, I find most woodturners can never have enough turning stock. The woodturning club I belong to has a Christmas party each year and part of that party is a "grab bag". We bring in a turning, that is judged by the people who come to the party. The people who make the top three turnings get prizes (like sandpaper or a tool). The real prize though is the exchange of turnings that comes from this colection of turnings. Some of my most cherished turned objects are the ones I have recieved from these grab bags.

>Hi Richard,

I obviously am not Russ, but he gave us an update on the chatroom last night. It was a broken motor shaft, and even though the lathe is 6 (?) years old, Oneway is sending a new motor at no charge.
