    Excellent post Robert, I too was thinking of making one. For those interested, I saw t-track is 50% off at Rockler right now.

    Looks easy to make. How'd you divide the slots into three measurements?

    Hey Robert, nice piece - are you going to make a scaled-up version for your 1642?

    So have you built one for the latest lathe? And is it a big lathe, and will it be for sale soon, due to getting an even bigger and better lathe?
