85 foot lathe update *Pic*

In Response To: 85 foot lathe update *Pic* (Jack Sanderson)

Here you can see the mast partway through the grinding process. The slightly darker fiberglass section is a flat spot wasn't coming in contact with the grinder. The surface in this picture looks a lot rougher than it is due to dust. A vacuum hood (upper right) was necessary to keep all the dust under control.

Regards,

Jack
