Maybe it could be a "Ronco Peel-O-Matic", ....anybody remember those old Ronco TV commercials for Ron Popeil's Ronco "...... O-Matic" gadgets? :crackup:

Yeah... he always had another gadget to
sell. The one that cracked me up was his
Hair in a spay can.... :crackup:

Maybe could be use to "machine" hard cheese like Parmigiano-Reggiano but probably not accurate or stable enough for even that. lol

Man, that made me crack up, that's hilarious Encap, +rep when I can buddy. :beer:

So, maybe he can sit it on it's side and use it as a bottle cutter, ala Ronco style....

Yes. Ron Popeil, entrepreneur extraordinaire

Maybe it could be adapted for use with the Ronco/Popeil Automatic Pasta Maker or one of the Showtime Rotisseries

Were didi you find that lathe it even comes with inside and outside jaws , the tail stock need some refinement LOL !!

might be useful for soft plastic milling, maybe.

Give that lathe 2000rpm and it will tear itself apart
