^^^^^ John Lucas is correct. The vibration intensity does change as material is removed.I saw a post from John Lucas saying he had used one but abandoned it because it needed frequent adjustment as material was removed from the workpiece.
Hey, Odie, maybe the answer is in that coffee machine. You just need to adjust the amount of caffeine intake to create a vibration internal to the turner that counteracts the vibration from the lathe. Kind of like noise cancelling technology.
