Coincidentally, the guy calls himself "4GSR," which I assume is a
reference to the LeBlond 4GSR boring lathe. I was involved in the
bed
refurb of a 4GSR recently. 70 feet long, 16" hole thru the spindle.

They held an open house on their 200th anniversary. The big lathes
were holding ballistic missile sub propellor shafts.
