Laguna Revo 12|16 Lathe bed inserts

thingiverse

I have two parts, both of which slide onto the bed of a Laguna 12|16 wood lathe. Not sure if it will work on other lathes, but if the bed is the same size, then I don't see why not. I decided to build some dust collection into the bottom of my lathe. It helps both to block some of the bigger chippings from falling under the lathe and to direction the suction of the dust collection underneath what I'm turning. Rather than leaving the entire bed open, I made these two inserts. The first insert is for under the motor spindle.while the second piece is an endcap to the bed. Both are easy to slide on and off.
