Got the basin painted today and decided on red for the power feed and other end cap. She's all greased up and smooth as new. :woo

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I can't see the forest for the trees.

The head wasn't lined up, and the head pivot had been removed and put back upside down, the degree numbers were on the wrong side and upside down. Rhodes came over and we took it all apart. The head came off easy, the head pivot was pretty easy, and the head spin was easy. We did spend hours trying to get the head main bracket to slide but we finally got it. I guess now we can do anything including angles, never know, it may come in handy. :)

Me either! I think the last of the stuff came in today. The mill has some bling now lol.

I just couldn't bring myself to put that ugly vise on there either, it looks better now. :)

Looks good Gene, but I'm not used to seeing a Kurt vise in any thing but medium blue.

Getting to be time to see some chips flying. We are waiting!
