Hi everybody. Larry Weist here. I just joined the board. I'm planning to build Kozo's A3 and Shay as soon as I get some time. I have a 9-in South Bend lathe I bought a couple of years ago from the son of the original owner and a Grizzly mini-mill.
I also have a Harbor Freight 7x10 lathe, but I'm not fond of it, even after spending a lot of time rebuilding it and trying to tighten it up.
I've been reading the board off an on for a while and I've enjoyed all your posts.
Best to all

Welcome Larry, thanks for checking in. I have a SB 9" lathe and a Grizzly mini mill also. You will be able to make some decent parts with those machines. I agree with your thoughts on the mini lathe, I had one and sold it after about a year. Hopefully you will find time to start building a loco sometime soon.
Good luck, Jamie
