Lathe Apple Parers

Lathe parers have a threaded shaft with a fork on one end and a crank on the other. As you turn the crank the apple is rotated past a stationary blade and slicer. Some lathes move the paring arm and slicing blade past a rotating apple. Lathe parers are efficient to use and manufacture. Although developed early in the evolution of parers the lathe has "won the day" in today's market. Click on the pictures to explore the lathe parers.
