I had fun making the bench on mine.? IT is the lathe on this home page, the green stand.
If you search through my pics that I uploads you will see some decent photos of what I did, but I basically create 2 pedestals for storage and faceplate/chuck and tooling and made a nice top using 3/8 plate and some joinery.? Im big into restoration and I wanted to really honour my Dalton project so I put a bunch of time into it.? I have seen some people use Hardware store quality rolling tool cabinets with nice wooden tops mounted to the top.? Grizzly sells butcher block tops.? There are many options out there
