When I explained it was to get the skid steer he said "Why don't you just borrow a skid steer?". My response was "I didn't know you had one." and "I don't, but my son has one. I'll call him, tell him I need it and then go get it and have it here when you need it."
A great offer in my opinion ...

More good news followed. When I asked the neighbor how much I owed him for the skid steer rental he said it was not an issue. I had been blowing out his driveway for the last 15 years ... see one of my other links about the transformation of the car into a tractor with a snow blower ... so he just asked me to continue doing that this year. I would have blown the snow even if he had not had access to the skid steer so it all worked out nicely.
Arvid, can we trade neighbors? I'll give you three of mine for your one! Pleeeeeease???
Congratulations on the new lathe!
Oh, and.....
