I ran the big Gorton mill at Gunners to tap the little handle we made

My buddy Glenn has a VFD and speed knobs for his mill, too. It _sure_
as hell beats changing belts, the way I learned in 8th grade.
At least you learned something, in the eighth grade! ;-)
The other thing I learned then was not to get my tie caught in that
spinny thing on the left side of the lathe.
Ties are only worn for weddings and funerals.
