We’ve had this old-fashioned candy machine in our family for some time, and while I have been meaning to make a nice stand for it, other projects and commitments seemed to always get in the way. But recently I acquired a Rockler VS 12-24 Variable Speed Midi Lathe (item 72333) with the accessory bed extension (item 71801), and I knew I had the perfect project for this lathe!
The candy machine fits well on the smaller top specified in the on page 29. But you might prefer to make the larger top instead
