No idea as of yet. They claim it runs well, but they are modernizing
to subspindle CNC so much of their second op stuff is becoming
surplus...which btw....I will be brokering...

Not bad shape though for such an old pile of parts eh?

That was going to be my question when you sent us to your site with
lebenty seben pics on it. OK, top left group, first pic, with your
full trailer, which you had mentioned last week. Wasn't that THE pic
you referred to in the vague post?

Well, you've put up another batch since yesterday morning. It's the
Walker Turner trailer pic.

That's the older version than mine. In fact it's the model before
mine. That's a VHF-2B though it does look like it might have the 40
taper spindle instead of the #4 Morse (you might check that).

It does look like it's been taken care of. Nice catch.

Definite plus there.

Well it wouldn't be the end of the world. It's just a piece of steel
with two holes. Definitely possible to make it. The tapered adjustable
bushing for the arbor would be tricky but there's other ways around
that.

It does look like it's been taken care of. Nice catch.

Shipping would kill me. Besides, the way Michigan is going down the tubes,
I just need to keep my eyes out for semi local stuff.

Sure hope I never have to post a, "Best way to move my shop" question.

I think Bush read _All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten_, and
took it to heart.

In Los Angeles, everyday we hear ads on the radio about the "economic
advantages of Michigan"

When I started hearing these blurbs about relocating your company to
Michigan...I realized someone had flushed and economy of Michigan was
swirling around the bowl on its way down.

Maybe compared to California Michigan might be an upgrade for a company. Not
much but something. I have a feeling California worker comp costs don't
come near to Michigans.

I just don't understand how California keeps going and going. We got fewer
democrats and more much more water.

But Wes - I can open the door to my shop in December and enjoy the sunshine,
and I don't have a heater in the garage, and I don't have AC either - and I
can go surfing - which of those can you do in Michigan ---- although I do
admit you have the left coast beat on one thing - much bigger and stronger
mosquitos

When they cut off/use up your water supply from hundreds of
miles away, remember we have a lot of it in Michigan much
closer by for local use :-)

Beautiful weather and temperatures may be nice, but it is
hard to live very long without water...
