I actually did pretty well over the weekend. I got a 1942 vintage 6x18
Norton surface grinder with hydraulic traverse and cross feed, a Brown
and Sharp mag chuck, a large selection of wheels and arbors, 5C spin
indexer, diamond dresser on a B&S mag base, small coolant pump/tank
unit, some assorted 1/2 and 1/4 Loc-Line components, a Precise S 65 high
speed spindle (needs collets and collet nut), two DuMont Minuteman
keyway broach sets, a chucking reamer set, a tub of assorted slotting
and slitting saws and a big box of assorted aluminum hunks 1/4"-3" thick
or so.
Keyway broach? (Perk!)
Need both of them or only one?

Really?
"Hurt" aint the word.
For Liberals, the truth is like salt to a slug.
Sunlight to a vampire.
RaidŽ to a cockroach.
Sheriff Brody to a shark
Bush to a Liberal
The truth doesn't just hurt. It's painful, like a red hot poker shoved
up their ass. Like sliding down a hundred foot razor blade using their
dick as a brake.
They HATE the truth."
