What Did You Buy Today?

Well &*"£ me! that is a big eagle and here I was thinking they were a protected species? LOL

Seriousy though, I will bet that is going to take a bit of moving..

The seller is coming back tomorrow with a big fork lift to move it into my residential garage. Then I found a pallet jack on craigslist capable of lifting the behemoth so I can position it.

The cast iron base is 29.5 x 62.5 inches It's possible I got carried away after looking at that poster's Ajax lathe with the 1500 lb tailstock.

bought myself a pair of leather slip on shoes from goodwill to wear while I'm welding as I'm getting tired of melting holes in my socks
