I've built my wood turning skills to help restore furniture. Several years ago turned my first wood turning commission to reproduce an antique Mahogany table leg. At the time, this was a new skill for me and I'm sharing this video with some tips from the lessons I've learned since then.
I'm also showing an early prototype of a lathe dust collection system I've invented. You can learn more about it on the CleanLathe KZfaq Channel / @cleanlathe
