There is a Homier sale this weekend (Friday, Saturday, Aug 15-16) in
Minot, ND, and I'm planning to drive there early to be there when the
doors open Saturday morning. How many Speedway lathes would they
carry to each sale?
Probably around 4, that's all.
Am I likely to arrive and find them sold out if
I wait until Saturday, or should I have no problem?
If they bring them, and you get there when they open, you'll be OK. The
first time I tried to buy one, the place was a literal ZOO, and I couldn't
get a guy to help me lift it, plus the line was a mile long. The second
time I brought a handtruck, but they didn't bring any lathes.
I did e-mail
Homier customer service a few days ago, and they said they are unable
to hold one for me. (It's a 3-4 hour drive to Minot, but I cannot
take the Friday off work.)
Homier CS has nothing to do with the individual tent sales. You get
whatever the guy running the tent sale decides to bring. If he doesn't
bring any, or he runs out before you get there, you're screwed.
If you're going to invest in a 4 hour drive, you might just want to get
one shipped. What's 8 hours of your time and wear and tear on the car
worth?

Still working one the 1896 Star lathe!
