Please excuse the messy shop. I feel like I spend more time cleaning than woodworking and it’s still cluttered.
Disc sander attachment for lathe. 8” MDF disc, faceplate is holly, glued and screwed to disc, tapped to 3/4-16. Part of a holly branch which usually wouldn’t be useful but I drilled out the pith to prevent checking, it dried just fine.
Lathe tool holder from PVC pipe. I really like this.
Initially screwed directly to the wood stand, I quickly realized it needed spacers to let wood chips fall through.
Probably posted this before but it’s in the same album so why not. Tool holder for lathe bed, pvc & plywood.
Also replaced the plastic speed control knob with one made of walnut but I forgot to take a picture.

Cool looking tool holder Rick. Good idea with letting the chips fall to the floor. I myself keep finding ways to improve working with the lathe.
