Hi, Richard. Hope you are fully recovered and feeling great! Does anyone rent Biax scrapers? I can't justify buying one for the small amount of scraping I do, but I'd love to rent one for a week or two.

Perhaps the ultimate solution is the one the fellow at NYC CNC (I forget his name) showed in his YouTube video at <>.

It was NEVER this nice, even when brand spankin' new!

I never considered Starrett would go Chinese. Very depressing. Maybe this explains why, six years ago, our new Starrett dial indicator was sticky right out of the box! See my video at <>. Edit: Added "six years ago"

I thought the same! Be sure to turn ONLY soft wood or plastic. No hot chips -- EVER! :codger::)

Yeah, this really is old. Even older than me! Built way back in the days of cycles per second, before Hertz was invented. :) Beautiful work and very enjoyable series!

Will you consider selling the holders separately?

<Lots of great information deleted> You got a "like" from Thermite! :)

My 1948 SB 9A 4-1/2 foot bed has the name cast into the cross braces in a couple places. They looked like this when I got it: I had a lot of fun cleaning up the crap. They look much better now. :)

Thanks. I'll pass that on.

This email appeared on <[email protected]>. I'm forwarding it with permission. Dear South Bend Lathe folks, My dad, Doug Scott, loved reading the emails in this group even though he didn't post much after getting his 1947 SB 9" Model A up and running in 2013! He passed away this year...

Boy, this was a hard sell! A whole 14 minutes before they sold. :)

Whatever the problem was, it has now disappeared. I don't know why. Thanks for the suggestions!

For the past several days, I've had to log in each time I visit PM, despite having <Remember Me> checked. Is it me, or has something changed.
