[WIP] Woodworking Lathe -- Late 1800's

[Mike Amos]

Very nice indeed.

[Bryan K]

Looking great!

[Dave R]

Thank you.

Lathe has turned to the back burner but I did get handwheels and a few other parts modeled.

[Bryan K]

Nice!

[Dave R]

Thank you Bryan.

Thanks to Aaron and his live stream modeling, I found an engine to power it with. This one actually might be overkill for just a lathe, though.

[Bryan K]

That looks cool.

[Mike Amos]

Very impressive engine.

Hello Dave,
i like your lathe and steam engine. The steam engine seams to be a little bit oversized for your lathe.
In former days they had spezial models to fit the needs of small workshops. Here an example hanging on a wall:

I found the drawing some time ago in the internet and started a sketchup drawing. As you can see still wisp (work in slow Progress).
To build a live steam model you find a similar engine here:

Hello Dave,
today i founnd your steam engine at the 3d-warehouse. https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model/fece5c92-7dd7-44fc-bd1e-7ae20f04a6b1/TWIN-CYLINDER-HORIZONTAL-STEAM-ENGINE
After some colour/material adjustments i made a quick twilight render.

I hope you like the result.

Greetings from Germany

Looks like a good rendering. It isn't my model of the engine, though.must be one made by someone else.
