Has any one built a bowl lathe

Talked to a guy the other day, he tells me his bowl lathe is powered by a 36 hp Isuzu diesel. Didn't even ask about capacity but did get directions to his shop and a phone #. Gotta see this. I really think it's a bit of overkill for me though. I'll try to get pics.

If HP/torque is issue use live cutter.
Then anything that will turn the wooden piece is like hot knife through butter.
Then use a skew for finale passes ,
