2. Pole lathe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pole_lathe

   A pole lathe, also known as a springpole lathe, is a wood-turning lathe that uses the resilience of a long pole as a return spring for a treadle. Pressing the treadle pulls on a cord that is wrapped around the piece of wood or billet being turned. The other end of the cord reaches up to the end of a long springy pole.

3. Woodturning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodturning

   The style of cutting does not have the pause required by the reciprocating lathe's rotation. Even with continuous revolution, however, the turner controls the contact of tools and wood entirely by hand. The cutters are not fixed, nor advanced automatically, as with the metal-working lathe. The nature of wood defines woodturning techniques.

5. Line shaft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_shaft

   The fixed pulley on the upper shaft is driven at constant speed by a belt from the power source. The loose pulley ('idler') allows the machine to be stopped in isolation – necessary for changing speed. The stepped pulleys (left) provide three drive speeds for the machine tool (not shown), depending on which pair of pulleys is connected by the ...

6. Turning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turning

   Hard turning is a type of turning done on materials with a Rockwell C hardness greater than 45. It is typically performed after the workpiece is heat treated. [3] The process is intended to replace or limit traditional grinding operations. Hard turning, when applied for purely stock removal purposes, competes favorably with rough grinding.
