It sounds like you got your self a good deal. did you get any teaching
materials, like videos or paperwork with your new mill? There is a small
learning curve when it comes to useing the O.R Mill. but its not that hard
to figure out. Tim K has saved (what Art Ransom started. ) a learing page
with some of the best projects and topic that we have covered with in this
group over the last, So many years. I would suggest that you take a look at
it. http://ornamentalmills.com/turningaround/ It is a Good place to start!
talk to you more later.
Have a good day.

Subject: Re: Shipping a LOM and/or Heavy accessories
The SHIPPING was about $200 - the machine I got for a deal of $850. No
legs, but most of the important accessories. The shipping today would
probably be more now that diesel fuel cost $4.00 per gal.
I am located just outside of Anniston, AL , surrounded by Talledega
National Forest.
