I know I haven't posted in here in a bit but things have been kinda hectic.  The lil makeshift bench I built didn't work out too great.  So I just wound up picking up the sand for the lathe.  I didn't put the feet on it well they were simply not needed.  I did a run up speed test with it and i"M noticing that it only wobbles at certain speeds running at in between high speeds.  Still trying to figure out the best way to dismantle the delta entirely still working on that.  Slowly but surely.

    Hey Andrew, weighing down the base should help with that wobble.

    Or, if it's in a permanent location, I see ya got some holes in that stands feet, you could bolt it down.
