Looks great Steve! I hadn't seen what you plan on using for the dumping mechanism. What do you have up your sleeve for that? I'm sure it'll be slick as snot.

Steve. You knocked that one, right out of the park, and there must have been quite a pile of chips on the floor. The frame on this truck looks like it will be rock solid and heavy duty.

Hmm, Did you forget to take .100'' off from the edgefinder?

Any pictures of your set up on the machine?

Hey Steve, are you going to chuck the walking beam's in your 4 jaw chuck? or use a dead center and lathe dog? Center drilling for the tail stock(live center) look's like fun.
Later, Neil#2 aka doodlebug.
