If my earlier descriptions were unclear- I’m debating if it has its own floor support like this: Or if I can get away with building off existing structure like this:
Couple unknowns:
1) The lathe I have offers two different extensions, the 24” and 13.5”. Kinda seems like it might be possible to use them both together, the 24” against the OG bed and the 13.5” off it, but I want to call Rikon and find out. I’d want to build the support for the extension slightly more rigid if there was the possibility it could be supporting a second extension as well.
2) If I’m using leveling feet it could end up being a PITA to get the top of one structure flush with the top of the other one
3) Given I’m looking to save space, the wing solution wouldnt require a secondary smaller cart in the shop, and it would use less wood. But if I have to build a detachable standalone cart, I’d use it for storing my lathe jigs and stuff even when it wasnt attached.
