Hi. I finished the lathe this afternoon. Nothing was added or changed from the kit except the wood box with a few tools in it.

Holy cow ... another machine master! I need to pay better attention ... for some reason, while just browsing, I thought you and Jerry were the same guys ... ... (please be kind ... it's been a long day!)
CHEERS!

Thank you all.
Rick, I am thinking about a car shop. Just need to find room on the layout. My layout is getting like a second helping of Thanksgiving dinner, a plate full of food and no place to put it.

Another superb piece of machinery. In the race Roland vs Jerry, there will certainly be two winners.

I finished up a welding cart last night. The kit had some broken parts and more broke during construction. I finially threw it in the trash. Then I thought I should save the tanks and make my own cart. It is made of plastic bits, some wire and HO Jordan wagon wheels with every other spoke cut out.

Roland, you are our MacGyver. Only you could take some plastic bits and some wire and make something that looks better than the original kit.
