I was going to order a lathe from Taiwan online but I was nervous about the quality.  Some are excellent and some are ordinary, but how can you tell without seeing it?  The Chin Hung foundry does excellent work, apparently, but they didn't want to sell one directly.

Please tell me who are the best producers of machine tools like lathes and milling machines, MC!

This guy was not so lucky on Tuesday but alive.

Giant boulder slides onto road, lands on man

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — An Arizona man was seriously hurt when a car-size boulder slid onto a mountain road and landed on him while he and his co-workers were trying to move another massive rock off the road.

The 27-year-old Phoenix man was hospitalized with injuries to his legs and pelvis after being hit Tuesday by the 30-ton boulder, the Coconino County Sheriff's Office said. Authorities had no update on his condition Wednesday morning, and the road remained closed.

The man and four others were trying to get to the top of Mount Elden near Flagstaff to work on a radio tower when a large boulder blocked their path. The group tried to move it when another boulder that a fire official described as being "as big as a Volkswagen" slid down the mountain slope and hit the man.

The workers called for help but were able to remove him from underneath the boulder before responders arrived.

"I'm not exactly sure how they did it," Summit Fire Department Capt. Brian Parker said. "Just the fact they were able to get it off him was impressive, and it made our job a whole lot easier. Anytime there's any kind of crushing injuries like that where they're trapped, the sooner the better to get them out."

A photo of the scene showed a strap around one of the boulders, but Parker said he didn't know if the group used that, their truck or their bare hands in trying to move the first boulder that was blocking the road or the one that later fell on the man.

Thunderstorms washed out parts of the road, preventing anything but four-wheel drive vehicles from accessing the site. The man ultimately was transported down the mountain in one of the sheriff's office vehicles.

Parker said the man was alert the entire time, answering questions and talking to responders on the scene.

"He was obviously scared and in pain," Parker said.

Coconino National Forest spokeswoman Brienne Magee said crews will assess the road once the rain eases and eventually will move the boulders.

Gigantic Dislodged Boulders Roll Down Mountain Destroying Family Vineyard in Northern Italy



On January 21, 2014, a gigantic dislodged boulder measuring 400 cubic meters rolled right through a sharecropper’s farm in South Tyrol, Italy, while another boulder that also broke loose, rested just inches from the main house. Luckily no one was hurt, but the barn that housed the farm equipment was destroyed beyond repair along with many of the vineyard crops. A call for donations has been posted for the victims of this disaster.
