New Eccentric Engineering Product

Not bad. If you get one please do a review here. I think I'm leaning towards gravers for hand work. It does require building some support gear like a tool rest though.
 
First off, welcome to the forum!!!

As to your question ... The "Turnado" and gravers are probably not useful in a factory environment. Skilled hand work is generally the province of artisans and hobby machinists.
 
I successfully installed the Turnado on my PM-1022. First impressions are very favorable. First cut was just a radius in the end of a some steel bar. Actually much easier than wood lathe turning. The cutter is very easy to control. I drilled four holes (100 mm spacing) in the mounting plate so I could turn the platform either direction. After a lot of measuring, I cut the standoffs to 35.26 mm. Amazingly (given my skill level), all four standoffs came out the same length.
