Description: Historic, non-motorized, wood lathes and related machines from ancient Egypt to the 19th century.
When I first started experimenting with man-powered wood lathes, the sources I found were piecemeal bits and occasional illustrations in various books on modern motorized woodturning. But as a member of a historical re-enactment group with a firm educational mission, I was interested in not only the machines, but also period techniques, tools, and accessories to help me talk about the history of the trade in front of the public.
