Eric your lathe looks just like mine, used and not polished to oblivion like some that are featured. Keep up the good work.

Very nicely done as been said before can be done, if pushing the limit!

This is at where I work, not my job I was tasked with (bit daunting) Was glad I wasn't on my usual lathe (Harrison m300) which puts me directly in line with the line of fire if the job was to come out!

Definitely not a polished machine!

Sorry to hijack

William
