    Default Pink lathe

    This lathe popped up in my instagram feed this week.

    It's on display at IMTS (big manufacturing trade show) in the USA. Its a bit more pink than RC's lathe.

    It is an excellent lathe, not sure on the colour though, but I guess it is painted that colour for boob cancer. I saw a photo of a gold Lodge and Shipley lathe, and it looked better then my light red 10EE.
    Gold, the colour of choice for the discerning person.

    A tradie mate of mine used to have tools go missing on job sites all the time, so he started spray painting them hot pink and hasn't had one go missing in years

    I reckon it looks great. I'd make room for it if someone wanted to give it to me.
