Your kid's getting a nice Xmas present! I'd certainly rather have that
than some Harbor Freight machine.

Ah. Glad it is going to someone who will appreciate it. I had to force
myself to stop watching the bidding just to keep it from maybe following
me home - too big, too far to Ohio. Sigh.

Cool, a round dial 40's ee with the M/G set. Looks like all the covers
are there too, which is good. They tend to crack and get lost as
people abuse them through the years and are pretty near impossible to
find.

Drop me a note if you need any docs. I have pretty much the same lathe
in kit form right now (and unfortunately, it will stay that way for at
least another year).

There's a Monarch forum on the Practical Machinist website that you'll
probably want to check out.

(Nice score!!!)

"Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire.
Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us)
off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give
them self determination under "play nice" rules.

Think of it as having your older brother knock the **** out of you
for torturing the cat." Gunner

That's what I get for going on vacation. Nice score. Just wish it
was me. Lake Elmo isn't that far away.

Oh well. I know of another one around here that has been languishing.
I should go ask the shop supervisor what it would take to free up their
floor space. . This is ammunition to low ball them.

Thanks

My mother remembers you fondly and hints that you just might be my "real"
father...attached is my Xmas list...
