Thank you @YotaBota - I will get some changes done and post some PDF's - you guys really liked the yellow on white right???? hahahahahahahahaha

I will be sure it is clear - there are some small parts and some you will have to figure out how you can best make them or simply adapt something to fit. This is originally a casting and then machined so things may be a bit different if it is build up out of steel? This would be a neato thing to 3D print, make a mold and then cast it out of cast iron.....maybe ...... maybe not - LOL

Here are the plans for the 9" Utilathe version. I dimensioned everything you should require - you will have to fit things on your lathe and check it out. I do not have a 9" Utilathe so there may be a couple differences that you can account for on your own build. This is a scaled drawing of of what would originally be a chunk of cast iron. You will need to weld components together etc to get to the final item. The triangular looking skirt in the front you will need to figure out how to deal with it - weld plate in and then cut out a sexy profile?
