Slip slide and awaaaaay we go!

[bluewing92]

Well I slid down the slippery slop and it is all Gary G’s fault.:slap:
I picked up a used Mini for $150. Not to bad a deal. It cleaned up real nice. And here is a picture to prove it.:-D



Pens will be coming soon.:eusa_pray

Once you start making rectangular wood round, you'll never go back.

That's the same as the lathe I have. Works great. I'm looking forward to seeing some pens come off it and of course you are obligated to make an official bonker! Have fun!

Great find on the lathe.:eusa_clap
Thou creates a tremendous vacuum with your facial orifice.:roll:
I do notice something drastically wrong with it and am amazed that the more experienced turners (of which I are not because I only make pens) did not notice.
That late will not work right until you slop a little CA on it.:eusa_doh:

 

[bluewing92]

Yup I intend on enjoying to max.:eusa_danc

BY the way what is a bonker???:eusa_thin

Eagle, I hear CA will also keep it from rusting and if you hit with micro mesh every once in a while it will be the shiniest tool in the shop.

[sapwood]

Don't blame yourself Norm . . . the path was well greased for you :lol:
Congrats on the lathe. Looks to be in great shape and the Price is Right!

I think DaveO said it best once, You'll never look at a scrap of wood the same again! Jim
