Post:I got Lathe this weekend

From Fozzee.net

So I finally had a project requiring a lathe, and one magically appeared on craigslist about the same time. More details on that will be along shortly, once I'm sure it works :)

$200 included quite a bit of C5 tooling, most of which looks unused. The only major disappointment was the lack of a tailstock drill chuck, but I picked one of those up at Harbor Freight (they stock one in the store, with the current 7x10)... Got it home and set on the bench; At 100#, it was a bit of a beast to manhandle like that alone, but I got it done without too much disassembly.
