I searched the web to find any videos applicable to safety around the workshop when using a lathe and came up empty handed.

Some people touch on it when using the lathe but nothing specific.

With that in mind I created my own.

A boring subject I know but an essential one I think.

They are in four parts totalling about 45 minutes in all.

Excellent Ian. I couldn't watch all of them tonight because I'm really exhausted but I scanned through them fairly closely and love what you've covered. I'll take the time tomorrow to look at them closely and save them to pass on to others.

Ian,
Thank you for taking the time to make these fine safety videos.
I will pass them on to our club members, especially the new turners, but then we can all use a refresher.
Cheers,
Gil Jones
