This little lathe followed me home
(1/1)
Major 2:
I had bought this to use at work, but we've been shut down since March 2020 due to the Woo Hoo Flu.
I don't see us gearing back up before mid-summer if then ( Trade Show industry )
I decided I best use it for gun related projects etc. and went and picked it up.
I just finished a new firing pin for friends gun.... its better to use here than locked away unused in my office at the job 20

A lathe is a tool every serious gun crank needs, whether he realizes it or not ;D I've had an old 12" Atlas for over 35 years and have made hundred a parts, cartridges cases and reloading tools on it. I recently made a neck sizer bushing to go inside an inexpensive Lee Universal Expander die. Nary a week goes by that I don't do something on the lathe. Its like an old friend.
Slamfire:
Amen, ndnchf ,,I have a mini 7x12 & a old SB 9A 3 1/2 ' bed,, now can't do w/o'm ;D . Didn't know I needed them.
coffee's ready ,, Hootmix.
