It's amazing what can be down with just a lathe and a little ingenuity. Nice job.

Looks good, but I have to ask (and please don't be offended)...

With 5 lathes, a shaper, and 7 drill presses, what is it you do with a "Lewis mill" if not a job like that one?

Right now the Lewis Mill is for looks. I stripped all the paint and never put it back together...Bob
