A very near miss

Hi all

Just seen this "you tube" post.  Just shows what happens when you don't check - he's a lucky guy.

That was frightening!

It didn't look like the glue joints were up to much either.

A good lesson for turning the lathe to its slowest setting after you finish a job.

I think Andy knocked the nail on the head. If you look closely you can see that the glue lines, which SHOULD be stronger than the wood, have lost interest in procedings at every joint. That's where matey's problems lie, the lathe only supplied the centrifugals.
