Stan, is that your shop in the photos ?  Looks like someone besides me likes Grizzly Lathes !  I will be getting an new Grizzly lathe in the near future. The one I have is too small and it's close to being worn out now after nearly daily use for 20 years. I like the gunsmith version............Bruce

I love my Grizzly lathe.  Its perfect size for what I do and the community support is amazing.  I actually built all the parts a while back to convert the spindle to a D1-3.  I just needed a back plate for at least my 3-jaw chuck before installing it all.  Now that it has shown up, the conversion is complete.  That was the best modification I have done to this thing yet.  Now I can turn in reverse and not unscrew the chuck!
