New to me anyway..

[David Warkentin]

Well, we went to Nashville and picked up my new lathe. It is a PM 90. Now I just got to "Cruz" it.:D It was built in 1963 so it is about 15 years older than I am. It's in the back of the pickup and we are cruising down 65. Before you get too excited, I am letting my wife drive. And I know, I know, no pics it didn't happen. But it did!

[David Warkentin]

And you know, this is probably the first time it's been out of Tennesse since it was built in Mcminnville!

This might also be a first - posting a gloat while kicking on down the road - LOL! Just seems like if you can do that, you can climb back in the back at speed and just click off a few shots of it too? So, we're still questioning if you even got it or just cruising down the highway and wishing you had it in the back.

I wasnt sure what it looked like so I googled it, that is a very nice looking lathe, I love vintage equipment like that. Just for your info, when I googled it to see what it looked like I saw someone is selling the completely user manual for the PM90 on ebay for $20, just to let you know. Have fun with your new lathe!

[David E Keller]

Congrats on the new lathe... You can take a picture when you stop for gas.

[David Warkentin]

David
You know they make cheap cameras like Big Lots has one for 20 bucks with computer hook-up.But really glad to hear you got a piece of iron.

[Curt Fuller]

That's the nicest lathe I've never seen!

C'mon David, pics!

[Jim Burr]

Oh heck no...Don't do a Mike...it will never get used! Leave it dirty so it looks used!!

[Dan Forman]

Well, where are the pics??? :D

Congrat's on the lathe pickup.

[Mike Cruz]

Oh, man, now I'm getting slammed on RANDOM threads! Hey, stay with the program.

I turned something already!!!!!!!!

David, congrats, and let me know what I can do to help you...ahem...Cruz it up. Hehe, that's classic. Maybe calling pimping your lathe, Cruz, will be as synonymous as Thien is to dust collection. :D

Maybe being too lazy to do anything useful for the day will be called "Mike'ing" :p

"Yeah, I was totally beat from watching the game, so I just Mike'd it the rest of the day..." :D
