Re: What to buy me, oh my

Marcus,

Thanks for the info. Hard to know where to shop! I did a job on a
brand new 3 in 1, simply turning a 1" steel shaft down to take a timing
belt pulley, and boring it through. Only about a foot long, but we
must've used most of a pint can of cutting fluid, and couldn't get a
good finish. I haven't heard if the owner is still happy with it, but
it sure made me think!
