Woodturning - An old craft is becoming more and more popular
It all started with an elastic long piece of wood. A belt attached to it to turn the workpiece clamped between two centers, the other end attached to a seesaw-like foot switch. Finished was the seesaw lathe, which still finds enthusiastic followers today. Not least because of the low speeds and forces involved, a seesaw lathe is often a first lathe for children, who can thus learn woodturning in a fairly harmless way. It allows you to try out chisels and scraper and learn which tool angle allows you to cut the wood effectively.
