I currently have a Monarch 16CY x 54" that I use quite frequently. Unfortunately, it's max spindle speed is around 700, which works well for almost everything I do. I do find on occasion that I need a little more speed for some random 1/2" or smaller stuff that I do, but as much as I want to get another lathe, I couldn't if I wanted to because I'm about full in my shop, meaning it's a bit packed and I couldn't fit it if I wanted to. I digress...
I know they make them for milling machines and I know people have discussed them here, although rather lightly, but does anyone have a good picture of one or a design for one that they wouldn't mind sharing or any other thoughts, including telling me I'm crazy.
I found the following link, which discussed making one, but found little else.
