God damn I wish I had a lathe, the space to put a lathe, and the money to buy a lathe, plus also the expertise to safely use a lathe.

The more HP and revs, the cooler the bowl.

Bonus cool if your lathe makes super excessive noise and rolls coal.

I love pranking my neightbour by rolling coal on his backyard barbeques. Best part is he can't tell me to turn the lathe off cause it's too loud 🤣🤣🤣

~~Burning coal just for a prank. There ~is a word~ are several words for people like you.~~
