That's really nice - I have a shelf behind my lathe, but it's a boring old piece of white laminated chip board. Does the job, but not a nice creation like your oak shelf.
Very nice. I like having a shelf behind the lathe too, but I have a boring shelf like Propforward. It's a victim of its own success though; more and more stuff is migrating up there.......
that tray looks nice ,just be sure that you do not set anything on it that could roll or vibrate of and hit the turn chuck or piece i liketo keep my stuff on the head stock end. looks nice.

I will leave both ends open so that the chuck keys can be accessed easily. If you build one and make any more improvements be sure and post a photo here.Have a great day,Thomas
That is a very practical and useful idea. Very handsome in oak too. Must be good not to have to ferret around in the swarf for that chuck key!
