I heard there was a contest starting up. Neighbor Pete Jordan offered to let me use his really SWEET lathe. I got my hunk of wood all glued up and ready to give it a "whirl". You boys gonna let this flat lander play?

Bernie, I've been lathe shopping for a couple of months now. Come close more than once. John Hart mentioned using my Chevelle as a lathe....wouldn't that be something, bet it would be called "Redneck lathe":)

No, it would be called the sweetest lathe on SMC, powered by a big block 396 chevy..... VARIABLE SPEED!!! From an old muscle car fan, it wouldn't get any better than that! My lathe is red, but doesn't have a SS stripe!

That glue-up is going to be a great goblet Steve! You're going to turn that on Pete's big mustard machine and decide you can't settle for anything less!;)

The Chevelle would be great, but I bet you would spend more on gas than a lathe would cost you....

Git-er-done!! :D
