It has been a while since we have discussed this. The pole shows more people in favor than not.

Machining all started with the lathe. The first few were made with castings, and the ways were hand scraped. Then, it duplicated itself until it became more and more precise. Then, it made all the other machine tools. If it were not for the lathe, there would be no mill.

The lathe was the first one and that fact should not be forgotten.

Now, I do have respect for the other main machining tool so I would vote to change the name to Rumor Lathe/ Mill

Or for those who want to be really fair they would say Rumor Machine, but that is dumb.

I believe the word Lathe in the naming of this forum would bring great honor to the historic machine and add a little humor to the boards as well.

So, when will the change be taking place?

Based on the current results of this thread, I think it should be called the "Rumor Chicken."

C'mon, Dave... We all know the Rumor Egg came before the Rumor Chicken.
