Most template copy work is done with the long cutter from the side, to template cut vertically some sort of modification has to be done to the mill

When one does copy turning do you use a long cutter, cutting to the side of the spindle My Trend router lathe (Craftsman ) has to be from above .

I am interested in adding the drive motor to it, I see some people have added other aftermarket options, I would like to know what suggestions as to the pros and cons of adding the drive s are, I added a 36" cmc indexer to my cmc bur have not used it much. Thanks in advance for the help. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Legacy Ornamental Mills" group.
