What else can I say. My wife just spent better than an hour helping me change the oil on the new lathe.
I will say she was a bit unimpressed by the oil that go on the garage floor but she was a huge help.
She isn't delusional or pychotic so it must be love?
You will learn far more at the casting, loading, and shooting bench than you ever will at a computer bench.
You sure got a keeper...
Mine helps butcher, so I have no complaints.

Thank God for the ones that got away till I got this keeper. Good woman=good life...
Good women are hard to find, I found mine 25 years ago.
So just how did yall spill oil on the floor?
Sounds kind of UM funny to me.

Wife? I had one of those. I even got a gun for her, best trade I ever made.

The lathe was designed with creating a mess in mind. I'm not amazed at all to find out that Chinese engineers are just as dumb as American ones when it comes to design and maintenance. I will be making some sort of catch basin for next time, a funnel just doesn't work.Originally Posted by RED333

Maybe we should get the board to take up a collection and we can buy you one. I'm sure we can find one with under 250 K miles on her.Wife? I had one of those. I even got a gun for her, best trade I ever made.

Hmm, your lathe must have been designed by people who went to the same school that Ford engineers attend.
Your wife must be a saint. I suspect this because she hasn't yet traveled to Texas to pay me back in pain for getting you hooked on cooking up stinky bullet lube experiments.

Count your blessings.... And start with her!

My "Right Wife" ('cause I married the "wrong" one first) is also a keeper. She held the heat gun as I turned the magazine tube on a shotgun last week. God bless these wonderful women because they make us want to be better men and I know I don't deserve her.

I have been blessed with 42 years with the same woman. She loves to shoot and enjoys guns as much as I do. I like taking her to gun shows where she gets as excited as I do when finding something special. I think the key might just be finding something in common that you both can appreciate instead of being one sided. One of my special memories this summer was watching her shoot my 10mm Glock and liking it. She has always managed to lend a helping hand and it didn't matter if I was changing a blown rear end on the car or fixing the furnace she is always next to me doing something to be helpful.
My wife; for 55 years I've been taking her everywhere I go. Some how she always finds her way back home!!!

Do not argue with idiots. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
I got really lucky and chose a winner the first time. After 50+ years shes still my help mate, and encourages me in what ever I do. Always available, but never in the way.
I try to do the same for her.

Smart. Drain out the metal chips, casting sand, and replace the fish squeezins' with a petroleum-based lube.
Warning: I know Judo. If you force me to prove it I'll shoot you.
Lemme see 22 yr W/X1 got 4 kids raised spent me in to a 10k hole and a 425 credit score. X2 cost me just 16k and a slab of soul and I think I'm Running on a 3 valve heart but I got up to a 722 in just 8 yrs. Number 3...... Damned if I'm licensing that again..... But she's been great, lays in the goose pit, claims 8000f mountains, pours ingots,tells me to just write a check or run a card for the mould or the gun or boots orbrass or adecoy spread but only if she gets to play too. She bought me a truck,2 campers, and brags aboutnthen2 160 bucks on rhetoric wall. I owe X 2 $2000 and have 3 grand in the bank 3 payments and and point building card balances.
Now if I had a mill and a lathe to change the oil in she'd be the best.......But we're only 3 yr in so there's still plenty of time for me to get it screwed up properly.
Bt,looks like ya got a keeper

Used the Mobil that was recommended. The stuff that came out was brown, the stuff that went in was clear. Not too many metal chips came out, not were big.

If you knew my X you wouldn't be offering to do that to me. Again.
