I’m considering getting one, but am wondering if anyone has used one and can give some feedback on it.
Looking at the picture I didn’t realize the bottom arm moved. Not sure how stable that will be.@Rusty Nesmith , The Perfect has two arms like the Simple, but they are separated vertically. I'm curious how well that works when hollowing, though I do understand that it allows the Perfect to mount an optional sphere cutting jig.
Yes I use a tool rest. Those are the only pictures I have of my hollowing system. I took them because somebody wanted to see how the laser cleared my steady rest so I left the tool rest out of the way.Rusty, I feel like there’s a toolrest missing from your setup. Wouldn’t it be more stable if you had the toolrest near the mouth of your turning to support the tool where it enters the work?
That’s why I bought one. I was able to get the laser arm from them without the laser. That’s how I hold the camera.Thanks, I am going to contact Carter Products about the arm add on for perfect sphere. Makes sense for me because I already own that unit.
