Oval turning has been practiced since the middle ages and various different oval turning devices have been made over the years. Vicmarc has re-engineered this device and simplified the operation and set-up. The VOD300 has 40mm of adjustment. Therefore, if a platter has a long side of 400mm the short side will be 320mm. Maximum turning speed is 800 RPM.
 
The VOD300 will fit on lathes with a bed to spindle centre height measurement from 180mm to 300mm. Different thread sized adaptors are also available.
