Reminds me of when we needed to make a sprocket because we couldn’t find one in the pitch to match the chain we had, so we attached our piece of steel to a power drill to spin it up and attacked it with a grinder. Worked awesome. Two man job though.

But he didn’t, and I like the bowl he created more so because he also created the lathe.

Very cool though.
