I like authentic Mexican food...replace like with love...north country Mexican is anything but authentic :nah:

i'm jealous of your mexican population, although our strong ties with asian food probably makes up for it

i don't even know if the cantina in canberra was legit

aal has greek lamb to make up for it, and can travel to other countries nearby

That's awesome. Thai? I love, love, love love love Thai food. Thankfully we do have a good Thai restaurant up here :)

Korean is amazing as well. My favorite restaurant in the US is a hole in the wall Korean restaurant back in east TN. God that place is/was amazing. Hope they're still there when I go to visit my family this fall. Been almost 3 years since I was there so who knows :unsure:

Enchiladas Perfecto. You can get the George Strait Plate which is the same thing but, with a fried egg on top.

Eff me that looks good....

I'm spoiled here close to NYC. We literally have every culture and therefore very authentic cuisine of every said culture. Not every single one but, just about. Plus good bagels, pizza, egg sandwiches, and delis.

Real tacos are soft. Leave the crunchy for tostadas.

ok, that's not what i ate even in the place run by seemingly authentic mexicans

was a big mush of lime scented rice, cheese, soft shells and unidentifiable stuff, on a scalding hot ceramic plate

In the borough's of NYC, yes. On the Island, no. Can't say I've delved into African food yet.

So whatcha building there with that there Vicon Plasma table Corey?

:D

Ductmate transition. :?:

Back in the day,...when we didn't have a plasma table......I used to layout every fitting, by hand.... I really enjoy hand layout.... I assumed the new fancy robot might put me out of a job... Boy was I wrong. It just means we can produce a heckuva lot more stuff, in a lot less time. It just made us more competitive. :)

I assume you guys have one at your shop? ;)

that lathe is cool, been wishing I could trade my 2 in for one something like that, what is it, 9" ?

LMS 3540 Bench Lathe. :thumb:

It's a 8.5" x 20". Its a huge step up from the old one. The motor has exactly double the horsepower. 1000 watt brushless motor, power longitudinal AND cross feed, 220 pounds, where the old one was 90 pounds...

It should handle stainless a whole lot better than the old one... Lots o' SS buttons comin' up.

The old one was a 7" x 12". A damn good machine, for it's size. Here's a few comparison pichers...
