How do you like that lathe? I have been thinking about buying something small for my shop since I have use of my Dads 14x40 at his place.

Hey Reg. The laith is sometimes a little big and then a little small. But I am always able to get the project done either way, most of the time its just right. I got it from kms for $2000 out the door. Buzy Bee has a 10-22 digital readout coming mid February for $1800 + tax + ferry ride.
I'll pm you with my cell #, you can come over and check out my little shop of horrors

Hey Rob. That band saw is a ryobi from home depot. I't's ok for samll alum but its to fast for metal. It doesn't even like cutting my 2 ingh solid alum, so i got this pro point just before xmas to do the big cuts.
