No, the child is a healthy 15 month old, and is very healthy. My
ancient, battered, and rusty Craftsman lathe gave up the ghost the
other day, the bearings are totally shot and the motor I slvaged from
out old swamp cooler is making smoke, so I figure that, now that I
know I actually LIKE turning, it's time to buy something a LOT nicer,
which isn't really saying much. Unfortunately, there is that
competition between being a responsible dad (IE putting food on the
table and clothing the kid) and actually doing anything else that
involves any amount of money. I'm actually contemplating the
00921715000 Craftsman lather with the 15" capability, it's right in
the price range and should fit on the stand I built.
