What are you guys talking about? I have that same lathe, just a larger model. His is just a little under powered. And by the way, Hold my beer and watch this is sometimes followed by, "Quit laughing and call 911."

Since I have 4 wheel drive, does that mean I can have 3 friends over and we can all turn at the same time?
Your problem is that your supposed to have the window down so you can the driver the NC instructions!:biggrin:
NO!!!!! You must have four friends over. We have to have the extra guy to run the video cam. 
Cause we ALL gots to see dis!!!:biggrin:

"hold my beer and watch this is" decidedly redneck.
the Canadian translation is:
"hold my beer and watch this, eh."
although "you hoser" may also be used in place of the requisite "eh"

As that great southern filosofer said " Stupid is as Stupid Does"
Im surprised he doesnt "rough It out" with a chainsaw as it spins to take it down quickly. Its good to know that caught out in the wilds I can use a mini van, a forklift and a piece of 2 inch pipe to make a bowl to hold my road kill supper.
I love the disclaimer " do not try this at home" why thats the first thing I thought I do when I saw it.

There are a couple of good ole boys down south that made a lathe from the drive train of a truck........but they pulled it out of the truck and made a rack for the axle first!

I'm thinking they highly over-rated the horsepower....just sayin'
What happens when the 'driver' of the lathe gases it and turns left?
What is his wife going to say when she gets home and sees a piece of wood on the van?
Scott (I wanna see him sand it now) B

my family tree must have some of those roots in it. i was trying to figure out how i could use this theory. not the drill press and the skil saw, but the basic principle with more sophistication. been a red neck too long.

BY the time I buy a van, a fork lift and a plow blade, I could have a ONEWAY.
