    Outboard Turning Attachment

    $ 795.00
    Buy it with your lathe, or retrofit later.  The Outboard Turning Attachment bolts onto the leg assembly with four bolts using existing holes. A 1.5" solid steel bar stands upright on the floor and has a socket at the top to hold the toolrest of your choice (purchased separately).  An articulated arm positions and holds the upright in place.   Capacity to turn a table top up to 60”. The Outboard Turning Attachment is compatible with the Tilt-Away, as seen in the pictures.  We removed the tailstock from the Tilt-Away for clarity, but in most cases, it can be left on. When ordering an Outboard Turning Attachment, we will need to know the spindle height of your lathe in order to cut the upright the correct length    .
