Good work on these videos. It’s quite entertaining with your bits of humor during the builds and that little Craftsman lathe is cool!

[@CowbellCustoms]

I got a few kinks to work out on the lathe but so far it's done everything I know how to do with it lol. Learning as I go.

love the reverse blade on the hacksaw trick

[@CowbellCustoms]

It's a pretty good trick, but unfortunately it seems like when you do that it causes the hacksaw to teleport in a different dimension, because for the life of me I can't find that thing.

Nice work!

[@CowbellCustoms]

Thank you!

[@drew699]

Wondered what happened to this build....good to see progress again!

[@CowbellCustoms]

I really need to get myself committed to finishing the body work on a weekend, then I can feel good about cracking my engine open and getting parts ordered for it.

[@CastellawSpeed]

Looks like you should be doing body work instead.

[@CowbellCustoms]

Why would I want to be doing that 😅

[@CastellawSpeed]

@@CowbellCustoms I hear ya on that lol
