 milling machine I've been dreading picking this thing up for a month or two ever since it was ordered and was coming and thank you to the person who ordered for me that was amazing and super thanks but so it weighs 450 pounds and I'm thinking oh man 450 pounds that's so heavy but maybe maybe I just got myself so psyched out that it was gonna be super heavy that when I actually moved it it wasn't that heavy because I I took the box got it up on my little cart here and then I pushed it like I don't know four kilometers and then I got it into a boat I had a friend there who helped me get it into the boat that was nice just by sliding it along the board and then the boat came here and I got it off onto my boat I didn't I didn't go there in my boat because it's been really cloudy weather and you know my boat's solar powered plus I hate going to town anyway yeah it wasn't it wasn't that hard to move maybe I should have gotten a bigger one a bridge port I did damage my front wheels on my car a little bit the rubber came off them but they're still working I really want to open this thing and look in it but I think it might be easier to move it to where it's going still in the box maybe maybe there's a way I can peek in it's so wrapped and strapped I probably shouldn't open it till it's where it's going anyway it's a whoa man I've wanted a milling machine ever since I found out that they you know they make them I was like wait a drill press that drill sideways do you know what you can do with that that's basically what a milling machine is it's a drill pest drill press the drill sideways oh what do I do with this next oh I also have a new well I used lathe that someone sold me super cheap like basically for scrap metal price even though it was a fully functional lathe because I've been looking for one of those for a while too I have I know I have a little tiny lathe but this is like a full-sized one and this dude who I met online is super cool he's just like hey I've got this lathe I'm not using I'll sell it to you for scrap price and I was like oh yes and then you know there was lots of figuring out how to get it to the shipper who can ship it to Panama and it's it's been on its way here for months but it's it's there in the same place I just picked up this but I just picked up one at a time and this one seemed like the easier one to move the lathe I was worried it was gonna weigh more but it weighs actually slightly less than this it's like 400 pounds at least according to the shipping label and I could move it with my hands just the box is bigger so I may have to either make a new cart or modify my cart I'll figure it out I want to play with my machine but I'm not gonna be able to today unless you just you know open the box right here and plug it into my boat way this is what I got and some accessories you know some bits and stuff well I'm gonna have to get some r8 colic collets I won't need those right away though just for the future at some point in time I'm sure I'll want some of those and just other bits and pieces but I have everything I need here to start playing I'm gonna find a place in my workshop I think it's gonna sit right here tonight though I'll put a couple tarps over it make sure it stays dry not super worried about anyone showing up and stealing a 450 pound box this is super exciting cuz like when moving off-grid or to any remote location one of the big questions is am I gonna be able to get like big machinery to this place because you know I like to build stuff you know milling machines are big heavy things and you know there's a lot of that kind of stuff that I like to have to do a lot of things and the answer is yes even living out in a remote location I can still have my heavy machinery oh this is great ah in between that and the lathe I don't know that there's much else that I want that's that big and one solid piece you know like a welder isn't very heavy but not 450 pounds you know there's lots of lighter machinery that I want to get but yeah those those I think are the two big heavy items that I want and one's already here and the other ones I just have to go get it it's lighter than this one oh this is this is great good job cart even though you lost the rubber on your wheels there they still work fine a little noisy hey there's a starfish on my house that's a big one anything mr. crab
