Yahoo - I Actually Made Something

thanks guys - the real satisfaction in this was being able to figure out that the concept would work, holding the work and achieving a finished product that i had envisioned. I really'need to find some time to just practice turning, facing, parting,threading, etc

Good job Rick,
Agreed, nice finish, glad you were not hurt when that chunk launched itself.

Good job! It's the little things that you can make quickly that make having a lathe handy.
 
Good job and right attitude. Seldom will you have a need for the "huge" machining job, unless you are in business to make parts, but there is always a need to modify some existing piece and make it work for something else. Can't tell you how many times I refused to buy a part for the lawnmower, bicycle, etc... and decided to make it instead. It is a good feeling.
 
Good job, soon you will be looking around for projects you can make on the lathe.
