Oddly enough the little beast has been handy. I pulled the radiator out of Geo Metro, but was having trouble adapting the connections. I used the lathe configuration to turn a couple 3/4" brass nipples to fit. Without it, I would have had to use a ton of epoxy or some other stupidity. With a nearly a full millimeter of backlash on each axis, it ain't easy to do precision work on it though.

That's a nice looking drill-press. Digital tach, special. How's it been working for you?

Jon, I've been planning to get one of the many version of the Seig X2. Probably from Homier. If they don't come to town with one soon, I may end up driving to Indiana to pick one up.
