Hi Guys,
Next weekend I intend to build a lathe stand for a midi lathe. The workbench it sits on now is about 8 inches too high and also I want that space back. I have a couple questions.
1. Should it be framed with 2x lumber or would 3/4 plywood and pocket screws work?
2. Would it be better as a stand alone unit or part of a larger work bench to add mass and stability? (If stand alone I would add sand for sure to add weight).
Thanks
