How to build a Treadle Lathe: Part I

In part I, I start milling some rough sawn oak to use as the frame and I have assembled the needed hardware to make a functional lathe. I am using multiple sources in this project as reference material. I have listed the reference material below.: How to build a treadle Lathe by Steve Schmeck Lathe from a Loft by Roy Underhill Treadle Lathe by Mr. Chicadee on youtube. The hardware needed for this project is: 1/2" steel Rod 5/8" Steel Rod 3/8" plumbing flanges 1/2" and 5/8" stop collars 1/2" and 5/8" Bearings Shopsmith Lathe 5/8" Bore drive spur and MT2 Cup center Morse Taper drill sleeve MT2 I am committed to building this project using only hand tools and I invite you to watch the video series.
