I know that happened on the Practical Machinist board. A bunch of posters ran a "girl" poster off. She bought a Bridgeport milling machine and a Southbend Lathe and I have seen some of the work she has done with them, learning stuff in record time. I met her when she drove her Harley up to meet me on one of my runs. It is amazing what people take for granted on the 'net, and when somebody posts in real life, everybody doubts them.
Oh, well...
Welcome back

Alan,
I love my little bx23. I'm pushing 700 hrs on it now with no problems except two broken air cleaner brackets. I've moved tons and tons of dirt building up a pad for my new work shop. Dug the footings (150 ft x 24" wide x 24" deep). Spread and compacted 68 ton of gravel fill in the foundation. Set the walls and roof trusses. Moved snow at home, the neighors, and the church parking lot. Mowed grass, dig stumps, hauled sand bags and raked trash from our little flood here in Evansville, and too many other thing to remember. It's a little work horse, I don't know how I ever got along with out it. I saw your thread on the cab, awesome job. If you put a windshield wiper on it you will need to put safty glass in for the windshield as plastic will scratch too easley. Waiting to see the finished product.

RON, i bought all lexan for the cab ,except the windsheild ,and all the gasket.The glass company told me if i put small gussets or have round corners the gasket will work,and look better,so i did,They are gonna cut my windsheild when im ready,will be one of the last things.

Heres a pic of my modifyed air cleaner holder.WELD one up and it will end your problems.
