Lathe - Less

[Magicbob]

Well, I sold my old lathe today.
I have ordered a new Laguna Revo 1216, but it wont be in for at least another week.
I guess I could use this time to clean and organize, but I don't want to set any dangerous presidents, so I'll probably just play with my trains.

You won't be sorry, it's a great, solidly built lathe.

That's a sweet lathe. Enjoy.

Enjoy the time with your trains !!!

I've had my eye on that lathe, too. Also, I keep telling myself that I'm going to clean an organize one of these days. One of these days.

I wouldn't know how to work in a clean shop... I use the dust for inspiration.

Congratulations on the new lathe... not in my budget, so guess I'll just limp along with my Jet1442... it's working pretty good since it's last rebuild.

You can't use "clean & shop" in the same sentence

Welp, I got the new one home and set up.
Man this thing is a beast!
It is aligned perfect.
Now to make something

Awesome. Here's the first thing you should make. It's the only thing I didn't care for. I replaced the black sleeve with a DIY hand wheel. You are right, it is a beast.
