Hey Don how is it going? I bought both my 13 x 40 lathe and my ZX7045 mill from you at the same time about 3 years ago. Up untill the last several months I hadn't done much with them because the wife and I decided to finally build our log home right after I picked them up. That was 3 years ago this last summer. We are finally to the point where I can relax a little and enjoy the new shop I built. Things are working out good and will stop by here from time to time to see if I can add anything to the threads.
Take care
Bob

Don, not real sure what you mean. I have pics posted in a few of the mill and lathe groups. Here is a link to pics of some of the projects I have done and the machinery in the shop.

I have a business card, a bunch of stuff about pretreatment regulation implementation. In reality, I am a retired state beaurocrat (the only admitted beaurocrat, ex or otherwise, in existence), doing a little bit of the old work to earn a few extra bucks to add to the retirement checks.
I wanted to have a machine shop that would enable me to make most anything mechanical. This has become subverted to support my efforts to install a turbocharged 2.0 Pinto into a Sunbeam Alpine. Along the way the Alpine has gained front disc brakes from a hodge podge of GM parts, Saturn rear discs, Festiva master cylinder, Volvo fuel pump, Mitsubishi alternator, aftermarket in dash air conditioning and so. Most of the work is fabrication and I'm not much of a welder. To make things interesting, we have built a new house, moved almost everything but the shop.
Right now the Alpine needs to get finished and I need to aquire something like a ZAY 45 mill. Then heaven will be on earth and I can start my machine work in earnest, just as soon as I put a Ford Duratec 2.3 in an Alpine.

I am a few miles south of Detroit in Connersville, Indiana. That is about 65 miles east of your Indy store.
