Ever wondered how to make identical table legs on a wood lathe? My approach uses a simple template, also known as a story stick, to transfer all feature transitions and diameters to the table leg.
In this video I'll share my technique while making a set of farmhouse table legs.

I’m in my first semester of furniture making school. My design project is going to have round table legs. I gotta learn how to do this over the next month. I’ve only used the lathe to make a bowl and mallet so far

@WoodshopMike 9 месяцев назад

Bowl turning is where I started on the lathe. It's a ton of fun! Hope your projects goes well!

Hubby does lathe work. He would love a duplicator, too. But this might help him be more precise. Right now he uses visual.

@WoodshopMike 3 года назад

Hope it helps!!

@AutotechWoodworking 4 года назад

I don't think I would have the patience, (or ability), to turn something identical multiple times. That's why I stated on your last scrap wood challenge that I have no desire to own a lathe at this time. I respect the ability that you and others have to do what you do with a lathe.

@WoodshopMike 4 года назад

I hear ya! Turning one off items is a bit more enjoyable for me, but it's always nice to mix things up a little 😃

@mikecarlson3723 2 года назад

I have a question. is there a way to use the template as a physical guide jig a tool could follow and that gets transferred to the spindle?

@austinreed8425 Год назад

The best attachment I've seen was in a video titled "TORNO COPIADOR PARA MADERA" made by Manuel Castro. That thing is so smooth, but unfortunately, he only sells locally to friends and family. Apart from that example, the best lathe duplicator (or copy attachment) I've seen is made by Grizzly.

@mikecarlson3723 Год назад

Thanks for the info. grizzly lathe duplicator.

@loukasjason Год назад

Hi Mike, How thick is the wood at the beginning? Nice video 👏👏 very useful 🙏

@WoodshopMike Год назад

Thank you, I'm glad the video was helpful! Since this design has a pommel the stock starts at the dimension of the square section at the top and bottom. I believe this leg was 3-1/2" square and 29-1/4" long.

@tinaruichi8394 3 года назад

I want to learn how to do this!!!

@WoodshopMike 3 года назад

Woodturning is one of my favorite things to do in the shop! 😃😃

@jerryjoseph2174 Год назад

Hi on what site did you get the paper template for your table leg

@WoodshopMike Год назад

The pdf can be purchased here: woodshopmike.com/product/farmhouse-table-leg-template/ You'll need to print it off on multiple 8.5" x 11" sheets and tape them together to make a plywood template.

@buyisilengubane4559 4 месяца назад

Hi I am interestedin mass production of table legs. Is it possible to produce more than 1 leg & copy another leg without drawing? Thanks

@WoodshopMike 4 месяца назад

You may be able to get a duplicator attachment for your lathe. 👍

@shaneroerk7686 2 года назад

Random question. I am starting to get orders from far away and I am going to have to ship my table tops instead of deliver. What company do you use to ship your products?

@WoodshopMike 2 года назад

I've not personally shipped any of my work, but I've heard decent things about Uship. Lemme know what works for ya!

@leynamcgrath6106 2 года назад

I'm going to make my own table out of an oak my dad cut down in his yard. I was wondering how to make matching legs. Thanks.

@WoodshopMike 2 года назад

Very cool! Glad you found the video 😃😃

@patrickmorgan5281 Год назад

How do you ensure that the taper on the leg is identical?

@WoodshopMike Год назад

There will be slight discrepancies but you use calipers and a story stick to layout the features and then it's just a game of connect the dots so to speak👍

@sebefamilyvlogs8644 2 года назад

Hi Mike, awesome work! whats the measurement of these legs and whats the wood type?

@WoodshopMike 2 года назад

Thank you! The legs are maple and I don't honestly remember the dimensions. I think they started from 4" square stock and were 28" long.

@maxskewes 3 года назад

How long did this take you? Thx for the vid

@WoodshopMike 3 года назад

I don't turn very often these days, but I average about 40 minutes a leg

@user-rn4ss4tj2d 10 месяцев назад

how long is your lathe machine for woodturning table leg?

@WoodshopMike 10 месяцев назад

It's 32" between centers

@LaTrovanti 3 года назад

Please say how long it takes to sculpt a complete leg ?

@WoodshopMike 3 года назад

They take me about 30-60 minutes depending on how recently I've done some turning 😂

Not sure if there are other places that sell them. This is the only one I currently have though.

What lathe do you use?

@WoodshopMike 3 года назад

Hi Linda! This is an older Powermatic 3250. I found it on Facebook marketplace for a great price. Definitely not a lathe I could have purchased new at this point 😃

@scor440 3 года назад

Nice job.... i use a tool called a duplicator

@WoodshopMike 3 года назад

Thank you very much! Yes, I'd love to have a duplicator. For now I reckon it's a story stick and a pair of calipers 👍🏻😃

@CPatrickAssociatesMidlothian 3 года назад

Great video on turning. I would like to point out however, the way you cut those blanks to length on your table saw is extremely dangerous. That is exactly how the worst table saw injuries happen. Look into cross cutting on a table saw and kickback.

@WoodshopMike 3 года назад

Thank you! It's not easy to see, but I'm using a miter gauge 👍🏻
