After finishing( for the most part) my new shop, getting 3 vertebrae fused on my neck,missing 3 months work and one totaled automobile. it is a victory that is very very sweet. Hooked up to phase converter and made a few chips. My son is teaching me he is a machinist apprentice(by the way it is crazy the way manufacturers around this part of the country throw money at these kids. We went to the knob creek machine gun shoot this past weekend and he got job offers from class 7 weapons builders. $20 an hour as apprentice with paid school, $32 when graduated.

Wow, you've been thru some tough times. Glad things are looking up!

That has the makings of a sweet shop! Thanks for posting.

lonely is right but I believe the hunt is part of the thrill, was looking for lathe when I found mill,
 
You did well. That's going to be a fantastic shop though it looks in the pic to be a little dark. So you're still chasing a lathe. I'm sure you'll find one. That Index looks great. Happy Machining!
