My wife said, "was that another FedEx truck at your shop"?
I got my sharpening station together, six turning tools, chucks but NO lathe. They sent me a message last week that it would arrive this week so I'll continue to wait. It's probably best because I'm getting other things done in the shop that would be hard to do with a lathe on site.
I mounted my grinder on a mobile cabinet and I can keep my other lathe paraphernalia close by.
The grinding platform had a raised spot about the size of the old half-dollar coins where the attachment lug was welded that I had to file away and then I slicked it up with a large diamond hone. The front edge of the platform had dings and weld splatter that also had to be dressed up. Seems they would have done a little better job but it's good to go now.
This is the tool that I ask about before I ordered which no one that replied had used. They are made for Hurricane by Crown. I got 4 of those and today I got a package with my other two from Carter and Son.
I'll post a picture of how my shop is arranged as soon as the lathe gets here.
