78 here and just a kid at heart and a tremendous backlog of ideas in my head to keep me spinning.

65 rules!I'll be 65 in November, old guy.
Ooh, good one.Maybe the better question would be is your lathe older than you are. I joined the ranks of the independently poor (retired) many moons ago for health reasons and miraculously my health immediately improved. Don't miss working at all. I think that I am older than my old craftsman lathe. Not sure on that. Could be a push one way or the other.
While it is an interesting graph, I think it probably has more to do with who has time to peruse the posts. I don't know what the membership number is currently, but I would guess that the percentage of members responding to the poll is less than .04%.After seeing the poll graph, I'm worried that H-M won't be around by the time I retire. Manual machining will be a lost art by then, I suppose. More so than it already is. I'm good at tuning and rebuilding carburetors, too... Whatever shall I do?
