If it's getting too hot, it's probably turning too fast. Max speeds are printed on the shanks of my forstners. Range is max 870RPM (1/4") to 620 RPM (2")

Do you have metal working tools? A torch, maybe a welder, if so you could make a bed extension that bolts on to the end of the lathe and you could use the existing tailstock. People have also built extensions out of wood.
the key is to keep the drive center and live center in alignment. Since it's spindle work I don't think it would have to be dead on but for sure the closer the better

Lovely plane, Ron!
I love the low knob design and the one of the handle. Perfectly shaped and finished! Did you protect yourself while working Cocobolo? This wood was the one that opened the door to the hell for me!
It's an intriguing idea to finish the brass with True Oil, that's for sure. Could imagine that the True Oil protects the brass from aging. Do you happen to have longer experience with it?
