Pleasure to get to know you Raymond! And the Barbecue description has my mouth watering. We don't get much of that here in Utah but I used to travel to Alabama frequently and became very fond of Barbecue Pork and Lemon Merange Pie.

Thanks everyone for the comments. I promise I'm not that hung up on the name thing. It's just a little pet peeve.
Gordon, the barbeque is a family thing so we do have to have something for the kids to drink. Plus, we don't police what you add to your lemonade.
Dennis, the 14' Grizzly Bandsaw is a special order item. It's a heck of a sight sticking through the roof of the shop.
I've enjoyed everyone's posts and pictures on SMC. Thanks for sharing and I look forward to seeing more.
And for all of you that commented on the barbeque, let me know how many of you will be coming.
Raymond, great interview. Nice to meet you. Very cosy shop you have, mine is a little bigger but not much.
Raymond, great interview. I am a fan. Especially of some of those small pieces you have turned recently. Nice to know you a little better! And I promise you I won't call you R** :)

Very nice to meet you Mr. Overman!! I'm having a little trouble being grouped with Andy as a "Preventive Measure" but I'll try to live with it.:D Can I poke him with a stick?:rolleyes:
Nice Interview!!!
Poke away. Might help me understand if being a preventive measure is good or bad.
Well, it's not really good or bad Andy and John. It's more like, "Uncle Louie's a little crazy and he's always getting you in trouble. Best you stay away from him. You remember that time he told you to pull his finger at church don't you?"Quote:

Does this look familar? http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=13163
My lathe is a model 1460 made in 1942 or 43.
If you need the owners manual you can go to the old machines site or let me know. I can scan the part diagram and send it to you. PM me with an addresss.
Yep Rob. That sure does look familiar. I'll have to take a look at the manual. The question is, is there a reasonable source for the pulley and have you replaced the bearings in your? If so, was it a bear to replace them?Quote:

Nope I never did replace the bearings...yet. So far so good.
The only decent source of parts is ebay. In fact when I was looking for tool rests after I got this lathe. Headstocks with"working" bearings were going for 40 bucks or so.
If you call delta, they will tell you the equavilent part number if one exists.
Let me hunt for a link for you...here you go:

Nice to know you a little better Raymond. Is there still a Mayflower Seafood in your area. They used to have a great lunch special.

Thank you all for all the comments and questions and having an interest in what I'm doing in my personal life as well as my wood turning. I'm quite proud of what I've accomplished in the last few years in both aspects and I'm pleased that I have a group of peers that I can share my work with. It's an interesting dynamic being able to consult with people that you've never met in person and tap their experience as well as your own. I think through SMC and other online communities we can all grow personally and positively affect the art and craft of woodturning in general.
I look forward to working with each of you in the future and hope to have a chance to meet many of you one day.
I think they tore down the restaurant but moved it up the street a ways in Rock Hill, SC if we're thinking of the same place. I ate there once for dinner years ago but it was out of the way for lunch.Quote:
