[QUOTE="joegrizzy, post: 3883658, member: 45524"] yep, i have walked into places like woodcraft and looked at how much a good set of lathe chisels would be. outrageous and definitely way more than i could pay. estate sales you can find really good quality steel for cheap if you know what you are looking for or take some time to google on your phone while your there and don't let anyone know what you're looking at. those estate sales can get wild these days. yeah so far i've used my 50's era greenie in various configurations: >grinder/flapwheel to clean, restore, and polish the various knobs and levers on itself >wood lathe to turn a few baseball bats >drill press >horizontal boring i have most of the parts for the bandsaw in a box, but i have a benchtop bandsaw that i use for that purpose. i've got the table saw attachment and several others, but i doubt i will ever those functions. but if i *needed* to, i have no doubt it would function fine. even for a machine that is nearing 70 years old. i *think* it's a '55.
