Hi Guys
The intention of my post was just to highlight the use of concrete as a solid base for construction not to construct the lathe shown. a couple of lengths of 25mm square steel bar and a small quantity of rebar and a simple box mould would give you a solid base on which to mount a couple of Hiwin Rails.
I have seen on superb gantry mill manufactured this way(sorry can't find the link) but this is something similar.
