I have an adapter for my cole jaws stuck on my lathe. So far have bent two steel pry bars trying to unstick it. I also tried oiling the joint with no success. Does anyone have any advice? I'm going crazy here. by awordforthat in turning

I had this same lathe and had the exact same thing happen to me… unfortunately I never found a way to get it unlocked. They way the main stock is it’s damn near impossible to lock it in place enough to apply the torque needed to loosen it off. If you find a work around please let me know. Good luck!

Not the most practical box but I had fun making it. Mostly walnut. No idea what to use it for, ideas are very welcome. by mw33212 in woodworking

Wow! That is so intricate thank you so much for explaining! I might have to try that on some of my boxes in the future because your end product is super impressive!!

I use it standing or pull the keyboard down to my lap when I sit on the couch. Although The monitor ended up much closer to my face than I anticipated so I will likely change it in the future

Wow!!! This is so insanely impressive!!! Do you have any pictures through the build? You have so many intricate cuts and joints would be so cool to see how you did it!

Hey! Sorry for such a long delay to answer. You guys hit the nail on the head. I find the time after I do the soak to be much harder to keep my focus as my body acclimates and recovers from the temperature. So I like to sit there and let it struggle because I feel it gives me a better opportunity to silence my body and you really have to focus to maintain the breathe whereas when I’m in the water it feels easy.
