Machine tools and stuff...

I missed out on this boring bar today. I had been watching it for a few weeks. I set a timer reminder for this morning. I was getting ready to jump in and start bidding. It was at $290. My computer crashed. All I could do was watch it on my phone.
We had one like that we used back in the early 80s when I was in trade school. We bored an old flat head Ford with it. Did a great job.
 
I like the description.

A friend was a ring man for a auctioneer doing farm auctions, told about them selling a bull during a farm auction when the bull busted through the corral, the auctioneer never missed a beat, announced "bull sells as is, where is."
