Couldn't resist the temptation to finally upgrade, so with the permission of SWMBO (LOML), I got the go-ahead to move from old blue to this:

Way to go Mike! I'm jealous....I already have a 3520, but I can't remember when it looked so nice and clean! The next thing you are going to want to get is one of those lift tables from HF so that you don't throw your back out when you are putting one of those jumbo blanks on! (works great for moving the lathe around too)
Mike - Welcome to the Creek!
Great gloat! Looks like quite the upgrade! Have fun with it! Looking forward to seeing some of your work - we like photos!

Congrats... I'd be envious but mine should be here in a few hours
Welcome to the PMOCASG powermatic owners club and support group! haha. Seriously though, congrats! Big upgrade there! I see you're already quite busy. Welcome to the forum!
Welcome to SMC Mike. Looks like your holidays will be happy ones.

Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.
Welcome to the Creek Mike! That gloat and proof photograph is a great way to make a splash here! Enjoy!

So much to learn, so little time.....
Welcome to the Creek, you are going to love that lathe.

Whoa Mike!!! What a way to bust into the crowd! Welcome sir and hope you enjoy all that Mustard...Bill..
This Mustard club seems to be getting bigger by the hour......
Congrats and welcome to the Creek Mike.
Thanks much for the hearty welcome Have dabbled here and there with various segmented turnings and a few pens on the old blue 1236, but time to kick it up a notch and couldn't think of a better way to get going. LOML was also kind enuff to suggest a HF 2HP dust collector and today told me to get a new scroll saw as well, so will soon be in possession of Delta's yellow DW788 complete with stand and work light. Thought that getting a fishing boat and a new Harley after I retired from Uncle Sam's Canoe Club was the bees knees, but now we're cooking with grease
Pleasure to meet you all after lurking for so long.
