    Thumbs up Just delivered, finally after 5 1/2 weeks

    About an hour ago the jet 1442 vs was delivered, boy what wait.

    we got it out of the crate and moved into place. I got it cleaned up and next move it in position. i dont know how many projects that i did in my head while waiting for it.

    I thought spring would get here first but the JET made it first maybe next week i can give it try as this weekend is filled up.
    Start square and you will finish square

    Hey Roy, I'd like to extend my stealth "congrats" on your new toy. (Just so you know, you will not be able to read this particular congratulatory salutation until such point in time that pics of the alleged tool show up!)
    Cheers,

    Now you just have to wait for the digital camera to show up and you can use the new lathe! No pics, no glory?

    ALRIGHT Roy..... It's about time that thing got there and you have certainly been far more patient than I ever could have been. Looks like it made it a day earlier than you last told me. That is a good thing

    Like the rest have said Roy, we would like to see a picture when you get a chance. We will do our best to keep King Thong at bay until you can post a pic, but no promises

    Congrats my old friend.... now let the fun begin
