Hi,
Currently there's 37 results when searching for Lathe. Only 1 if I add wood.

So if you have access to a workshop, it would be cool to record sounds there smile
Perhaps if you could do a small item such as a pawn and record the full session that would be cool. But individual samples would be nice too.
Ideas are idle spin at different speeds, cutting, sanding. Maybe mic positioned focusing on the cutting and another a meter or so back capturing the entire lathe with motor and cutting etc...
A lathe motor mic sound would be cool too.

Ideas for tags pick and choose the relevant ones : Wood, metal, (maybe the kind of wood/metal used too?) cutting, turning spinning, spin, sanding, lathe, wood-turning metalworking metal-spinning machine workshop work-shop

Cheers!

CC0 Be a hero.

Do pencil sharpeners count as a "lathe"?

Better to be trash talked about than to not be talked about at all.
