   I'd like to have a lathe again for sure.   
      
   When I was a youth I had no connection to anyone familiar or who could   
   mentor me.   
   Now I have been involved in a lot of commercial manufacturing operations   
   and done a fair amount of machining.   
   With landing-down here, might soon come time to look at this - getting   
   some machine tools.
