cutting perfect circles

I was thumbing through a book on jigs (sorry, I can't recall the full title) and there on page 34 is a picture of a jig for making circles on a TS! a pin on a sled to spin the workpiece...

This isn't so easy without a lathe.

You just need some imagination. No lathe? No problem!

Mount the wood on the shaft of a grinder motor. At 3450 RPM you get a very smoooooth finish. Ed snipped-for-privacy@snet.net

With your thought process, I could make 6' round table tops using my buddy's Piper PA-28 to turn the stock! All I have to do is talk him into taking off the prop. It's not like he can fly with all this snow. 180 HP would be plenty to keep the work moving at a steady rate.
