Thanks Hoss.
The first day you posted these I set and watched from the beginning of first vid, to end of last.
Its funny sometimes how just even the little things you learn from something like this can help so much.
I will have to admite, like some others have meantioned, I would love ot have that selection of tools at my home shop. You couldnt even hardly hear the Monarch lathe running when he was using it. I hope to put one of those in my shop one day, or even a nice Hardinge. Heck a nice Southbend would even be great to me. A friend of mine has a new 13-40 gunsmithing imported lathe. Its a very nice lathe and works great. But he has a 11" Rockwell/Delta right beside it that you could not trade me two of the newer lathes for. That old WWII area stuff just runs like a machine should.
