Well I got my Fathers day gifts(for the next 10 years:D ) from the wife and kids and I must be doing something right:rolleyes: I got a Jet 18" bandsaw and a Delta 1440 lathe and a Oneway Talon chuck with all of the accessory jaws. And on top of that I was at a local antique store that deals in tools and got a complete set of Irwin auger bits and a Hawkins brace for $45(no pic, sorry:() I'm really going to have to be extra good to the wife next year at Moms day!:D

Nice loot Jack. That was a heckuva find on those Irwins. Those are some real nice brace bits. The Jet 18" is a great bandsaw.
You're right, you must be something very right, even if it is a setup. ;)

Well as to her wanting me to stay in the shop she does refer to it as the "Fortress of solitude":p And boy are you guys cynical!:D

Great haul!


I got a lathe too! Well... It got ordered, I have to wait six weeks for it to be delivered from Canada.

Hope everyone had a great weekend/Fathers Day.

I sure did.

Hi Jeff , well the lathe far excedes my skill at this point but I'm learning! I plan on taking some classes on beginning turn pretty soon. Dennis Peacock is going to be in my neck of the woods around the fourth and I Hope I can get a free lesson from him. :rolleyes::D I hope to post some work soon.
