Second one seems preferable to being underneath all that when it comes down at least. Whats the right way to do that?

dickbutt is not radially symmetrical, you'd have to do it with something that can move the cutting head in two dimensions

if someone can make the turret style rook piece by using only a lathe that'd be p.impressive.

Interesting move, you are challenging the thread to find you something less interesting to lathe than a chess piece, I hope to gently caress it doesn't pay off.

I bet I could make a four fingered hand on a lathe, and they're not radially symmetrical

They make rotary broaches that can cut a gear type shape, so I don't see why one couldn't cut the top of a rook with the right tool.

Edit: you can remount a piece on various angles to cut away arbitrary radially symmetric pieces, so you could do a knight if it was a challenge to do something in a very difficult and inefficient way.

There are some osha-ish videos of his but he's too all in on the perfect process to cut any corners, safety or otherwise.

Nothing.

Just completely grind the stock into swarf.

Though it probably would be fun to watch, so that could count as 'interesting'.
