Default Bridgport gloat - thanks Gunner!

Unfortunatly, I haven't had a chance to plug it in yet... I'm getting a
divorce, and I bought my wife out of the house, and with me moving out
for three months, and then her moving out, and a housemate moving in,
and my young son, there's been very little time for anything "extra".
Well, with that said, I picked up an older rebuilt M-head Bridgeport
for $500 a few weeks ago. It even came with a set of Bridgeprt collets.
(More he http://www.lathes.co.uk/bridgeport/page16.html).

I'm really excited about it, as now I can move into production on some
of the projects I had in the back of my head for a while... Some goofy
robotice and other mad-science type stuff. Maybe one or two other
things I can make a little money off of, too. It should be a lot of
fun!

Gunner, I wanted to say thanks for hooking me up with this sweet mill!
And helping me load it, and all the other stuff you've helped me with.
I really do appreciate it. If there's something I can do in return,
please let me know.
