I enjoyed this immensley. I am looking to build a bowl lathe next month using mainly pitch pine 9x4' sleepers. Your design is my favourite so far. I love its MASS. Any advice re tradle length , position and stroke. This seems to be the place I have the least idea. Did you get the bed dimensions simply from experience or can I find them listed somewhere ?

The extent to which the work is done by feel - that's so hard to convey in a visual medium.
