Looks like I"m moving from the Green Monster fan club to the Mustard Monster fan club, as I'm now the proud owner of a nicely used Powermatic 3520B!

I picked up the lathe plus a whole host of turning tools, a Monster hollowing rig, OneWay Easy Core system, a very nice vacuum chuck setup and a bunch of chucks, turning blanks and other great stuff, courtesy of our own Ken Glass. The purchase price made the 5-hour one-way trip well worth it -- as did Ken and his wife's great hospitality; we were even treated to a wine tasting from Ken's own home winery (and it was excellent, BTW!)
So now I've got every toy I could possibly need, I guess the only thing I lack is the turning experience to put this stuff to good use. But at least now I don't have any excuse for not being out in the shop turning...
Thanks again, Ken!
