Free metal working lathe
Ever wanted your own metal working lathe? We've got one you can have for free, we're told it's in working condition by someone that knows about them. The catch? It weighs about 2,000+ pounds, it's in our basement and you need to get it out without damaging our house. It's probably 30-40 years old, an old-school machine that might be useful. I can get more info/pictures if you're interested. (yes, this seems like a ridiculous posting, I know)

I just emailed her.  If it breaks down in small enough peices, I could set up a 2x4 rail system on her bulkhead steps and winch/come-a-long it out and take the peices on my trailer in a few trips.

Imagine the shit we can make with that Jeremy!!!! I've used one before...It's been probably 20 years but it's fairly basic...We can make pipe caps, drill into the end of round stock, make knurled handles with threads inside them!

Axle:
It's crazy, but the possibilities are endless!!!   ;D

If you guys get it I get a finders fee of "teaching and use"
