 It still needs a bit of work but my lathe is finally up and running! About a year ago myself and two friends purchased lathes from the Czech Republic. After finding a motor and building a table and a few other parts and pieces it is up and running and I cannot tell you how excited it makes me to be the proud owner of such a beautiful machine! I also recently finished a residency at Pilchuck that I plan to post about soon! The focus of the residency was brining six glass artists together- three novice glass engravers and three expert glass engravers- to come together and share ideas and approaches to glass engraving.
