Well the deal is done. I am now the proud owner of a Celette bench. Of course, handing over cash and hauling the thing home was the easy part. Now there is the stack of associated tools that I'll need in order to actually do something with my nice big hunk of metal. Plus it's in need of a little TLC, such as cleaning off the rusty parts, cleaning threads and lubricating everything.

Whew... it's been a long day. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yawn.gif)

OK, now we need to get one of these in Scottyb's shop and one down south and we will have the country covered. There are some 914's that can use a second chance.

Congrads Mark! I'm sure it was a hard decision to invest the money.

Congrats indeed.

All I need are measurements, time and money (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) and I could build one

Yep, just as rust-prone, haha.

WillsWerks in NoVA has a bench, but they only work on 356s, oh well.
