Engine lathes are more heavy-duty lathes that have more variety in speed settings and can be used for both wood and metal. The word lath is recorded from the late 13th century and is likely derived from the Old English word * læððe, a variant of lætt. This in turn would seem to stem from a Proto-Germanic word * laþþo, from which have sprung words in many Germanic languages, e.g. Dutch lat, German Latte. The root has also found its way into Romance languages, cf. Italian latta, French latte. The related German word Laden ( Middle High German: lade) denotes a board, plank, sash, shutter, counter and hence also a shop.

A wood lathe is a machine that can drastically cut down the time you may require to carve wooden vessels and other tasks. The items you will make using a wood lathe are more evenly carved and finished that can’t be achieved by hand. Wood Lathe Vs. Metal Lathe Tool room lathes are likely to be larger than bench lathes but are more flexible in terms of what accessories can be used with them than other medium-sized lathes. Automatic/CNC lathes use computer software to allow one user to operate multiple lathes for mass production purposes. There are also other additional classifications of lathes with more focus on metalworking as opposed to woodworking. Machines used for solely wood can run at higher speeds because wood is softer than metal, and as such it may be beneficial to have one specifically meant for wood if that is all that you will be working with. However, many metal lathes will work with wood, and the machines designed for metal will offer greater precision as part of the trade-off for lower speed.

When the plaster has failed the lath can be clearly seen. Sometimes the laths need replacing because Lath can deteriorate over the years due to insect infestation or rot, especially if modern less breathable plasters or paints have been applied. For the final top coat use FINE STUFF - a mix of lime putty and fine silver sand. As before gain the surface Remembering to wet down the surface before application with a fine mist spray. Allow time for the water to absorb into the plaster then apply a coat of approximately 2mm. Whe this has slighly stiffend up apply a further 2mm coat and trowel to a smooth finish with a steel trowel or a wooden float will give a more open texture. The open side of the store should ideally face south/south-east to better protect your firewood from the elements. The motor power of a wood lathe should ideally lie in the range of 1/8 HP and 3 HP. If you have to carve out bigger workpieces, then a wood lathe with a large motor can help turn wood effectively, whereas motors with lesser power can go well for small-sized projects. A solid and sturdy base is a mandatory requirement of a wood lathe, especially if you wish to produce high quality turned wooden workpieces.Tool rests can be considered as a safety component that allows the tool to rest over it. Thus, they must allow you the freedom to adjust to different positions as per the need of the hour to direct the device towards the wood workpiece.
