the beggining of the lathe hobby

The packages all arrived today. After dinner I used a dolly to take them back to my Tractor building and took a picture. Then I opened the box with the table for the lathe – no instructions at all! Fortunately I have an eye and a brain so I assembled it and set it in place. I had a small piece of angled steel left and screws to attach it, but no certain idea where it goes. The holes pre drilled in the top to fasten it to the base were off where the holes in the frame were located so I put in a couple well and put the rest in as best I could. It is surprisingly sturdy. Supposedly the package weighed 18 kilos, but it did not feel that heavy. Tomorrow I open other boxes and assemble other stuff
