Building a lathe could be super fun. As someone who has built a few machines, I can tell you it will give you a unique perspective on how that machine operates.
A metalworking lathe, though. I like the cut of your jib. That will be fun, and potentially extremely dangerous. Don’t kill yourself, please. There is nothing more terrifying than a lot of mass with a fuck ton of momentum.
The book I’m working off of is from a whole series called “Build your own machine shop from scrap”. I opted to skip book one where you build a charcoal foundry, and opted to buy a propane one instead. Mainly so I don’t make a ton of charcoal smoke that floats around the neighborhood.

Thank you! Yeah, I’ll be careful with it.
