[PSUBS-MAILIST] new lathe

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

Hugh,I agree it is ideal, not that I have a clue how to operate this thing.  David, I would be happy to make parts for Psubbers, I can fit a CT in this thing  in any position with room to spare!  Sean, yes EE would charge a fortune to machine the heads.Hank

 You bought a 22000 lb machine, and that was cheaper than having EE do the machining? Yikes.Sean

Hi All,Today I finalized the deal on my new Vertical lathe, this thing is a BEAST  it has a 42 inch chuck and a 48 inch swing, and it weighs 22,000 lbs.  It is being shipped on a low bed semi 1,000 KM. It is too tall for a regular trailer at 10 feet tall.  I have to remove a section of shop wall to get it in lol.  I bought it to machine the heads for the next Elementary project.  Hank
