While we don't have the machine tools in our shop, we have access to them at a sponsor company off site, and using them we were able to expand what we able to do ten fold.

Personally, I have trouble thinking of what to even do with a lathe..
Could you guys give me some ideas? The only thing that comes to mind are rollers for a conveyor belt.
I'm by far not the best mechanical member of our team, so I may not have the mechanical imagination that some of you do, but I'd like to hear some examples of what a lathe has enabled you to do.
