Sorry about the way my comments came across I did not know that you were a beginner If you have any questions you can post them on here and I am sure that I or someone else will answer them. So once again please accept my apologies.

thanks, that is the type of input I was hoping for. Good point about the tool being out too far and the cross slide. Like I said in the video I’m just a hobbyist and have much to learn. Any more pointers would be appreciated, just keep it clean, Thanks.

The only thing anyone will learn watching this crap is how NOT use a lathe. Far too much overhang on the tool and, the Cross slide should not be overhanging when turning using the saddle or power feed. Rough, is too good a word for this.
