-- I can use $10,000 worth of tools to make a 45-cent bushing I could
have
bought on my way home from work at the local lawnmower shop.

You, too, eh? g Bushings for worn-out junk that I should throw away
have been my primary lathe products for several years now.


As a pimple-faced teenager on a meager allowance, I was making bushings
with an electric drill and a file.
Today I'm making the same bushing on a $2000 lathe

Pretty sad, eh?


I know the feeling. g
