Hey guys ,
I am wanting to throw a 21" dia by 1" thick blank of oak on my Grizzly lathe....
The slow speed is 600 Rpm and the motor assembly has to be turned sideways,
would this be a safe thing to do ?
the blank doesn't weigh much but it is a lot bigger in Dia than I have ever turned...
I know that as far as weight is concerned, I won't have a problem, but the outer diameter does seem rather big--
any suggestions or comments are welcome...
thanks
--Chris
