Lathe is being delivered to work tomorrow. It made it to the UPS distribution center on Wednesday last week, but the brain trust there sat on it and never called me to schedule the delivery. I had to call the 800 number two times today and they finally forwarded my call to the morons at the hub.
I'll haul it home tomorrow evening. We have a short work week so I should be able to do setup and break-in...and start f'ing up some metal by the weekend!
This project. I shortened one of the stocks for the upcoming stamp approval. I tried the lazy minwax method of refinishing the crap wood. I have some grain texture throughout as of now. Going to hit it heavy with sandpaper tomorrow and try to smooth it out some. I'll give it one more shot and just run with whatever I end up with.

EDIT: I uncrated this at work today. Going to haul home tomorrow hopefully.
