You guys wanna see a really big lathe?

Wow. Needed a few extra axles, huh?

4 axle tractor with a 4 axle extendable step deck. About 145,000 lbs gross weight.

It came out of a General Electric plant in MN. Mountain Iron I think. Pretty sure it's closed now and the the plant it went to in Nova Scotia burnt down.

Damn that thing reminded me of a transformer movie commercial (I haven't seen the movies)

That billet it is working weighs 60 tons. It squeezes it like so much bubble gum. ZERO effort.
