Oh dear god, they finally found it. THE lathe.

Alex I knew you would find this. I didn't know how long it would take,
but yeah. This lathe is absolutely ridiculous.
I honestly don't think anyone at hack pittsburgh would have any project
needing 1 micron accuracy, but I want this
lathe, bad.

For a reference point -- my friend with the CNC grinding shop only polishes down to 20-50 microns, and that's done by hand.
