Hi Folks,
I am a hobby woodturner with a problem. Due to circumstances beyond my control I am no longer able to hold the tools with any control. I am looking at the possibility of mechanising the process. The more I think about it then CNC would be an interesting way forward. If anyone has any experience of carrying out such a modification or has an idea for such a build, I would love to hear about it. The Lathe is an HDB 200XL see www.hegner.co.uk for details. Hegner make a duplicator, but at £700 +VAT, I am hoping that I can find, build or have built, something better, even if the cost is higher.
Thanks in advance,Tim G-C
