I'm just going to stop and quit saving for a bigger lathe. It never works out for me. Everytime I have the cash things happen and I never get a head of it. Dental bills and collage. Man I'm just going to stop.

Oh well there is always next yr. It just seems easier to pay someone.

You better take a few more classes...

I've had it happen to me too.

You just have to keep saving otherwise when that crap comes up are you going to have that money?

I have the cash for a lathe now,but there has been dental work and collage payments that have happened while I've been gone. So have to make sure those get paid first. Just trying to keep out of debt.

Maybe I can find a used cheap one. I'm actually ahead of paintball grenades. That all paid for it's self last yr. First big batch will pay off the mixer,so I'll still beahead there.

Just can't seem to get ahead on everyday family needs. However they come first.

Collage isn't for me,my Son. Since the economy is like crap,I made him a full time student. So yr round schooling,no breaks.

I'll just keep saving. Maybe I'll hit another big job with alot of over time.

Where are you hailing from...

Ive got a big south bend in my garage Im not using and will sell in expensively... The motor on it is a 240 single phase but I maxed out my homes 240 lines and would need to do a $2k upgrade in electric for it.... I opted to spend $700 and buy a smaller lathe.
