> You aren't making a lathe for someone with no experience.

Probably the #1 image I wish I could purge from my mind is that of a lathe accident. I saw the picture maybe 15 years ago, and I still remember it in horrifying detail.

Some tools really shouldn't be used until a person has had thorough safety training. The two that immediately come to mind are lathes and table saws.
