As stated in the first part of the article the table is actually a lathe faceplate from my 7 x 12 minilathe that fits onto the flanged pillar. The table mounting construction (i.e. the baseplate, socket and flanged pillar) is described at the end of the first part of the article and continues at the beginning of the second part. Mike
