Bought a HF lathe at a garage sale a couple three years ago and it's sat in the garage until yesterday. Haven't turned anything since high-school back in the early 80s. Here is last two mornings work. Three snowmen and a pig in oak unfinished and a walnut bowl finished with odies paste...
I hit a 2x8 (house lumber) in the fog. No damage to stainless prop, about three hours later the rest went tits up. SEI replacement. 6 months out of their unconditional warranty....
At the top end i learned is MDO grade. In my small twon lumberyard it was 100 buck a sheet. It is the grade used for outdoor signs. I used old timers plus since floor i did mar8ne epoxy paint.
Yep, that's a mariner.
I'll link my overly long and overly boring thread for you to review. I had all parts for my rebuild, yer gonna need more help than I can answer.
