Still cleaning up after the fire on September 29 that burnt my woodworking shop all the way to the ground.Last week I found a 4224A powermatic lathe for sell in North Carolina . Bill Bulloch , Ryan Hodges ,and I made a road trip to pick up the lathe . I now have a new used lathe and still working on getting my new shop built .

Congrats on finding a great lathe for starters. Hope the process of rebuilding goes as smoothly as possible!
