I forgot to post this over here. I took advantage of the WMH Black Friday sale to make the big plunge and upgrade from my 1949 Shopsmith to the Mustard Monster. It arrived on Tuesday Dec. 15....

Well I left work for a couple hours to take delivery of the lathe.:D:D:D

Then had to head back to work and will spend the evening opening it up.

Unfortunately when the truck arrived the power lines were too low:eek:, good thing I had a stack of OSB laying around;)

Assembled!

Well when I got home that afternoon, I couldn't open the box fast enough! I borrowed a pallet jack from work to move the crate in the shop and borrowed my dad's HF lift cart to assemble the lathe. The whole process went much quicker than I thought. I had to call my dad and ask him to pick up a plug on his way over. Here are a few shots of the assembly and my little helpers.
