Want to learn how to run a machine lathe in the privacy of your own home?

I just came across this niche video-rental site,, which rents how-to videos on all kinds of art and machining and stuff. I'm not sure how much of this stuff you can actually learn from a video, but if you like knowing about how things are done, or are fascinated (as I am) with specialists sharing their work, there could be some pretty amazing stuff in here.
