From a book about routers I have found description of the use of "Sears router turning machine.".I wonder were it may be bought? Further I wonder if drawings for self made excists.

Thank you very much for prompt reply.. It is the type shown in the thump nail I am thinking of. I do not know eBay, where may it be found?

Hi Asle Schei,
Here in the UK trend was the manufacture of the router lathe, but they stopped making it in 2004. Sometimes they come up on www.ebay.com but not that often, it is probably worth if you want one to get it from the US ads i can not find a supplier here in the UK.
Cheers
Pete

Hi Asle

Below you will see a link to eBay, they list two for now but they have them listed just about al the time

I had one along time ago, and last week I said I think I will get one just for kicks

so I got one off eBay for 51.oo bucks that needs a bit of work but that's great for me because I do like to play with tools..

and rework them..

The one I got ▼
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=260220267844

============
some they now have listed ▼
http://cgi.ebay.com/Router-Crafter-S...QQcmdZViewItem
http://www.auctiva.com/hostedimages/...0,0,0&format=0

http://search.ebay.com/search/search...ter&category0=

=======
aLSO check Craigslist in your town, with luck you will find one.

Hi
I will thank all of you that kindly responded to my request. I found description of a home made version presented in Fine Woodworking 1991 by Norman Zentil "Spiral-Routing on the Lathe ". This looked very nice and very flexible so I decided to make one myself.

Regards Asle

Just a update on the one I got off eBay

It had a item or two that was missing so I made my own, new idle cable wheel,handle crank,mounting hold downs,some bolts and washers,it had alot of rust on it but with some SOS pads it came out looking like new...now all the parts move free and easy.

I pop in some pine and did a test cut with a 1" router and put on a small taper to the stock and it came right out on the button..

It's a easy jig to use and it's quick , the jig can hold a pattern right up front and the router will copy the pattern and put it right on the stock the same way.

All in all it was a good deal, now it's ready to go to work and that's coming up next.
