I would like to build a stand for a Midi lathe with two bed extensions.
I was thinking about an 8' long boxed beam setting on two MDF pedestals or building some wooden legs.
For the box beam I originally was thinking 3/4" Plywood but I realized I could also box with 2" x 10" lumber.
Is there any precedent or better way to do this? I'd like to use the lathe to turn 4" x 4" porch columns.
