Watched the video and some of the others. That lathe is the bees knees right 
enough. An outstanding project. I notice it uses air bearings for most moving 
surfaces, and I wonder how much that limits the loads it can bear. I noticed 
the builder did say quite clearly it was for small loads, but I wonder what he 
means by small?  At what kind of loads does an air bearing stop bearing?

I also noticed his joysticks integrated into the apron. Nice touch.
