Dan, she didn't say the word "gone" when she left, did she? There's a country song about that...

I was informed this evening that she didn't want to talk about it, nor did she want to know how much it cost. Evidently it wouldn't be a problem if I was using my Jet, but using someone else's lathe doesn't count towards "lathe use time".

What no pics???????
So ya bought an experienced lathe, I don't think you quite understand the concept.
Bill's lathes are known for throwing guy's up into the rafters, just ask him.
Say there's a big wind coming through here... no that's Dan's suckage.
I usually find it much easier to be wrong once in while than to try to be perfect.
My web page has a pop up. It is a free site, just close the pop up on the right side of the screen
Wow great buy! I know I am late to this party but you got a great lathe! Send your wife some flowers and do a lot of beging! Well worth it. Again congrats! Rumor is a the big guy is still Robust!!
Pics will follow (with a huge grin) when I actually get it in the shop... at the moment, it's still @ Bill's. He'll hang onto it or another month while his new one is being built.
I'll be renting a 10' moving truck to get it down here, and the wife and I are going to make a day of it visiting the local vineyards. When we went up there for my class time with Bill, she was out sampling the vino... we came back home with a few boxes Concord grape wine smells just like someone opened a jar of Smucker's Grape Jam, and I believe it's our new current favorite. Of course, we can't get wine from many PA wineries here in MD as many of the distributors simply don't carry them... word is the PA yards don't make enough to distribute in large quantities outside of PA. I think that's bunk, but whatcha gonna do.

An "event", Justin? You a ski racer?
I drink, therefore I am.
Gottcha. When you said competition, there are a couple of ski resorts around that area that run recreational ski racing...just though you might be "one of us".
I drink, therefore I am.
Congrats!!!
David
you suck..
Dan,
Have you aready explained to your wife how you may need to erect an above ground shop in the event you cannot safely get this lathe into your basement? Once you swirl the vortex, it just gets stronger!
HA! He'll be in a new house before THAT happens...and I mean a house aaaaalllll on his own.
