    Love it. Being a machinist by trade, I appreciate seeing this kind of thing. It's been a while since I touched any real equipment, but my brother finally got a nice Bridgeport and an older smaller lathe just recently. At least now I can drill a straight hole if I need to

    Restores my faith in mankind.
    Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters is doing something similar. He has an old school mixing board in an old school studio making real music without computers. May not be your thing but it's the same idea.

    I was very lucky to work with a toolmaker who liked me. I recall dropping his "last word" indicator and he was upset. I had a new lens for it in a couple days.

    I ended up with a Bridgeport and a Kurt vice. My old company told me "get this thing gone this morning and it's yours" I gave them 100$ which doesn't even cover the vice.

    The Southbend lathe was in the dump. 2 guys dragged it out. I had to do some work on it but it was a steal at 150$.

    I could not operate without them; You NEVER find shops like that anymore

    Thanks for the video!!
    All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country

    I spent about 10 years working in a machine shop, but most of my knowledge came from shop class in school. I just kind of took to it in school and remembered a lot of it. All I've got right now is a little old Atlas lathe, but It's come in handy for bushings bearing and spacers, etc. I really need to get a shop built and get a big lathe and a mill.

    Pretty much the definition of what America used to be and why we were the world powerhouse and the envy of all other nations.
