Post:Lathe'd Again

From Fozzee.net

It's been a busy week, again, but I have at least a bit of breathing room tonight. My parts for my miter saw showed up today, and seem to have resolved most of what ailed it. I ordered brushes, brush holders and some cosmetic plastic bits. For about $20 bucks, it should last a while now, though the armature still needs to be turned smooth... I also found out that my super-secret RC Car Project has ended its first phase with positive results. Seth had some issues with tapping the holes in his parts, though his friend Jeff reports that his holes are tapped and the parts run well. This means that we'll be doing a short production run, thereby using up the remainder of our stock. This marks two things: The first "production" parts off the lathe (Since being in my possession anyhow) and the first time (again, since I've owned it) that its cut "virgin" material (ie not something someone else was throwing away). Yay!
