Tool Gloat

[Keith Burns]

OK, it's not Mayo or Mustard but I think it will serve my needs. It is of course the Delta 1642. Gives me 16" swing, with the VS drive 0 to 3200 rpm along with reverse. I'm waiting on thread adaptors for my chucks so I can turn some bowls. Can't wait to give it a real spin ! Thanks for looking.
(sorry for poor photo)

I know you will enjoy it Keith and I also know you know what to do with it. I am now confused about what I know that you know that I know you can do....:p Have fun!;)

[Dick Parr]

Wow Keith, I can't wait to see what you can do on the new one. That looks like it should do you well.

Congrats my friend...;)

[Scott Donley]

I wish, I wish, I wish :D and I don't even have my 1442 put together yet :mad: GREAT GLOAT !

[Bob Noles]

Nice gloat Keith....... A sweet lathe for sure. Now get those adapters and show us some pics.

[Ernie Nyvall]

Alright Keith... congratulations!!! Great gloat.

[George Conklin]

Way to go, Keith!! It's not too often that we are treated to pictures of big NEW Delta iron!

Awsome!!!

[Christopher K. Hartley]

Oh Boy, are you going to have fun!!! Great gloat! Now do what everyone told me when I started...GET IT DIRTY!!!:D

[Jim Ketron]

Congrats Keith!
Nice Lathe!

[Gary Max]

Great Gloat-----we still use our Delta all the time. Just think if you need service they are in Tenn. not china. Service is a real big deal for me.

[Bernie Weishapl]

Congrats Keith. That is one nice looking lathe. Can't wait to see what comes off it.

[Corey Hallagan]

Excellent gloat, congrats Keith!

[Dennis Peacock]

Wow Keith!!!! That looks GREAT!!!! CONGRATS Buddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D :D

Only problem is? It's too clean. :p :rolleyes: :D

[Jim Becker]

Very nice, Keith. You'll enjoy having a nice lathe "underfoot" as you do your wonderful work!

[Curt Fuller]

Good, solid, heavy duty looking hunk of lathe Keith. Will probably turn more wood than you can turn in a lifetime.

[Barry Stratton]

Congrats Keith, that looks like a big one! But that shop is way too clean..........:D

[Steve Ash]

Looks like a heck of a great gloat Keith, and will give you years of satisfaction.

[tod evans]

[Michael Gibbons]

Keith, be sure to give a tool review 'cause that exact lathe is one of my choices for a new lathe. Congrat's on the new iron.:D

[Mark Cothren]

Good goin', Keith! Looks great... but you know I gotta say it................................................ .....................................Aw, man.

:D

[John Shuk]

Nice lathe Keith. I use one alot at my friends house and I'm buying one from a Fellow Creeker as soon as I can get there to get it. It really is a nice lathe.

[Doug Thompson]

It's almost 24 hours since your post... well IS IT DIRTY YET?

That color is just fine, let us know how it you like it.

There is a used one in Portsmouth, NH for $699 if you are interested. The phone number is in the EBAY listing. It did not sell and they called me last week and still had it.

Congratulations on the new lathe Keith! Couldn't have happened
to a nicer guy..You deserve it!

[Bruce Shiverdecker]

The only thing I see wrong with that picture is that there are NO chips on the lathe!

Otherwise.............................Great Gloat!

[Andy Hoyt]

Normally, I would agree with everyone else and say, "Way too clean!"

But since it's Keith Burns we're talking about here, I'd just as soon have everything stay nice and clean.

That way my inferiority complex issues won't have to suffer further since he won't have anything to post.

[Keith Burns]

Well guys, thanks for the comments. I haven't had time to turn anything yet but this weekend, one way or another, I am going to spin something and get it dirty ! Hopefully Monday I'll be able to post a short review of the lathe.

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Nice lathe Keith! What have you been turning on in the past?

[Keith Burns]

Ken, it was a Rockwell/Delta 46-450 Variable Speed, 12" x 36". A great lathe by the way.

[Rob Bourgeois]

[Mark Cothren]

[Keith Burns]

I have a sterilization bath, high pressure wash, lye soap, clorox, etc. before shop entry can be made:D :D

[Rob Bourgeois]
