The lathes look really nice. Didn't seem like you needed to do much more than clean them up. So you're building a new building to hold tractors and such, cool. What's the size of your current shop? My new building is 32' x 24'. I showed real restraint keeping it this small. Plenty big for a blacksmith shop, but I'm already making choices which tools and items will make the final cut!
Thanks Mike. Yeah they are pretty great. Really happy with them. My current shop is 25x30...just not enough floor space so I'm going to make an addition out back to store my tractor and forklift.
You know it's good

I have a 35x50 and still had to make a lean to for the tractors/mowers and yard equipment. Wish I had the threader and DRO on my HC@@spinesales
@@chuckgilbert2035 having the threading attachment is nice but the DRO is a must have especially for the Z axis
my HC has a dial indicator set up for that. Hobby building here so at some point I will get it.@@spinesales
