Treadle Lathe – Feet

March 14, 2010 by Bob Easton 2 Comments

Work on something else while epoxy cures on the boat, or while waiting for the shop to be warm enough for epoxy work.

Bookmatched laminated Douglas Fir construction lumber can be made to look reasonably decent. The bookmatching here is the result of ripping a 2×8 directly along a center line and folding it in upon itself to laminate. The top surfaces of these feet are the new edges exposed by the rip.

Yes, same curves on the other ends.
