so i have spent the last week hunched over my computer/phone to find a crispy lathe for the taking. and finally after much searching i found a garage sale that was happening at 8am and ending at one. I WOKE UP AT 5AM!! just to make sure i could be ready and up at the garage sale at 8am. i show up im the only one there at 8, i asked how much for the lathe he said $450 he had no arguments from me. AND HE LOADED IT WITH A FORKLIFT, which a lot of other Facebook lathe sellers want YOU to load it. which these things are heavy as balls. i will be posting progress on restoration which will take a while Cheers to my new LATHE!!!!

also im on like 4ish hours of sleep so my grammar kinda shit
