At almost 67 I would love to have the skills to operate the old Craftsman lathe I already own and the Bridgeport I passed on. The lathe I may have time left for but the barn door is closed on a Bridgeport idea.
I passed on the Claussing lathe and Bridgeport mill, that I probably could have got for a song from my company when they closed the doors. Unfortunately, they were three phase 440volt, and I had neither the juice nor a place for them at the time.
Now that I do..... they are long gone. Oh well.....
