Ran across a Grizzly 10 X 22 lathe on Craigslist and decided I had to have it. It's quite a bit bigger than my MicroMark 7 X 14 and will handle more of what I needed when I was working on the 247 planter last winter and more recently and my 3600 Ford tractor. The 7X14 will only take a 3/4 shaft through the head stock, this one will take a 1" shaft and is 8 inches longer.
I beefed up the stand that came with it with the idea of putting it on wheels. Durn thing with the stand weighs about 700 pounds. For now I set it up where it would fit, and I could get to it easily, might move it sometime down the road. Have several upgrades I am planning on that will be easier to do where it is.
Fun stuff...
