New Lathe and Mill for the shop

<< < (2/16) > >>

See that Pelican case at the base? That had a RC transmitter in it that came out perfect!! Had to cut the case open, sent the story to Pelican for a new case, never heard a thing.

It was the best you could buy about 10 years ago, made in Germany, $1000 then.

Used a sawsall to cut it open.

TexasRedNeck:
Wow Ken. Sorry to hear. The hassle is the worst part of they stand behind it. Hopefully you paid with a CC. You can dispute it if they try to weasel out.

JR that's an amazing story.

Yeah, great story. It did it's job above and beyond.

The lathe is a 11x26. No drop bed... but just large enough for the barrels that I have. :)

Thought I would DOT up your thread a tad. I mean why should Don have all the fun!!

11x26 is what I have, great size. Sure Grizzly will take care of you.

Ken, if you don't mind me asking what is the approx. retail price on that mill along with specs? I sold my 2hp Bridgeport prior to moving. At 2k its pretty hard to move without some larger equipment. But at 700# that mill might be something I could handle here in my garage......
