How much does the hardware cost?

The wood cost just under $20 and I didn't end up using all of it (I ended up with two spindles and a 7 inch bowl blank left over). I used 12 inch screws and they cost around $12 each. I think 9 inch screws would have cost around $10 each.

Where did you get the hardware? Do you have a shopping list?

The press screws are 12 inch Jorgensen screws. You can get the 9 inch version from Rockler or Lee Valley. The 12 inch are available but you'll have to search online to find someone that has it.

Other than the screw I had a 3/4 inch washer under the handle and I think some #6 screws and washers to mount the threaded bit to the rear jaw.

For the wood just get any good hardwood of a decent thickness. I used 8/4 maple because my local Woodcraft had it cheap and I wanted to avoid any excessive racking.

Are those Jorgensen press screws? I love those things.

They are. I've been pretty happy with them as well.
