Way to go, Cory. Nice little lathe. Rarely hear a bad word said about them.

Congrats Cory. Used mine to finish a NE today. Dang is that thing smooth. Like I said the big Cman may sit until I need something bigger than 12". I think you had better go get the boy one cause you ain't going to have time on it once he gets started.:D :D :D

[CORY FETZER]

[Jerry Ingraham]

I'm ordering mine as soon as I get done oogling everyone's work here! I'm going to do some bowl turning demos in my kids' classrooms at school. Try to keep the art of wood working alive!

Well, come on....six posts and no details on your new baby. What did it weigh? How long is it? Boy or a girl?......

Congrats.

would hate to see the mother 36 in long 18 high and weight says 87 pounds but its heavy all dead weight the mother should be about a 600 pounder
