I first saw them through that thread on s&f, been a few years ago(when that thread was new). I've never seen one in person, but after some searching I realized that they weren't all that rare. With all the different pulleys/gear ratios available, a hot snowmobile engine & maybe a dado blade for better bite.......YEEHAAAW!!

got any pics of the lathe terry? when you gonna come race again in the midwest?

Looks like this:

11" x 26", had to go to Milwaukee to get it.

Gonna get to Hobart one of these years!

Darnit Keeley.... Yours is bigger than mine (this time)! LOL

I just finished up rebuilding and cleaning up. Now I need to figure out how to use it. Good think I have the old man to lean on. He's helped me out with this and a BUNCH of other stuff!

Later,

I'm sure they appreciate it. From what I hear,you have a pretty sweet running sport 40 with sparkly new paint job at least. Oh wait, that's still OPS

Looks great! That's a fantastic little machine for our hobby stuff, used it's bigger brother (Compact 5) for years.

Think I'll keep it for the smaller stuff.

I'm building 4 boats this winter. New Pursuit mono. A new ML for P limited sport. If can get to it a new P Sport from one of our local guys.

Right now we're working on an 8255 for 10th scale. Making my 15 year old do as much as I can.

Good you set him up close to the fridge, I've seen how teenagers can eat!

Nothing for me this year. I got my sport 30 back from Bert so it might get paint.. but I have other irons in the fire this spring.

Dang Epoxy Issues..

[Hydro Junkie]

Grim, I though that's what you had the space suit for.

I had several scales under construction. Gave up on them since I've been told by other IW members that I'm an idiot and not intelligent enough to finish them and get them running. Can't see wasting my time and money working on something that's probably not going to be allowed on the water anyway
