 Brian,Yes my lathe has feeds but the radius tool swings so it is completely separate from the lathe.Hank

 Hank,          Doesn't your lathe have an auto feed ?

 Hugh, The short answer is NO. If I think I can do it, I will try.    I posed a short video of the radius cutter working on Face Book.  I don't have any assembled pictures of the Radius cutter and it has to be disassembled to remove it from the lathe.  It's just a giant ball turner with an electric actuator with speed control.Thank you for the kind words.Hank

Hank, 

Is there anything that you won’t tackle?  You never cease to amaze me.  Have you got a photo somewhere of your turning mechanism for getting the radius?

I paid about $10,000 each for mine to be done but they did get Lloyd certs.

Mission accomplished, my dome is out of the lathe and ready for machine polishing.  Many thanks to River for helping with drawings and design.  

After polishing it will go into the oven for annealing.  I am making some small modifications to the oven based on conversations with experts in the field.

Hank
