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
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.
