This is a small table designed to be used as a height addition for a desk to make it into a standing desk, although it could probably be used for a multitude of other things. It stands 250mm tall, with a table top area of about 800x370mm.

The table is made out of recycled oak and wenge wedges. It is made with NO glue or hardware only relying on the dove tails and wedged mortise and tenon.

Ferrari Dino 246 alternator junction block cover + custom brass nut. It’s not the same as the original (last image) but unlike the original it contacts in the middle under the nut so it won’t bend.

Another addition to the lathe, 3 more quick change tool holders. The brass hight adjustment nob have an o ring on the under side to prevent it from turning freely.

ER 32 Collet chuck for the myford ML7. The chuck is made out of 316 stainless steel and the back plate is from a broken 4 jaw (that’s why there are extra holes). I decided not to make the nut and just use the one from the mill. The last few pictures show the making of a 21 tooth gear for the lathe to cut the metric 1.5mm thread, as my lathe didn’t come with one (it’s only made for aluminium but it achieved its intended purpose).
