    Id also recommend a trip to their store in Nashville.
    As interesting as it is, the location is inside the old Marathon Motor Car Factory.
    There are many other stores, for a nice shopping experience, but its really the hallways filled with original, "restored"
    Giant metal machining monsters! All hands on, and kids can turn the wheels, and touch all aspects.

    Ive watched the inspiration lights turn on, from young kids, as they explore these machining beasts from the past!

    Quoted from GPS:

    Hello All
    I have sort of been between cable and satellite for a while so I missed the episode. Hopefully it will be on streaming somewhere.
    I too visited the store in Nashville and unfortunately, I did not have the same great experience as some others here. Specifically detoured on way back from FL for work to goto the store. Upon arriving saw some neat items but what I was able to see was VERY high priced expensive stuff. Motorcycle, large radio exterior radio sign if I recall correctly. There were things in the store for a few thousand if you had that kind of change but if you were in the few hundred range I don’t recall much being there save for some beer koozies and t-shirts. Not what I detoured to goto Nashville for. Sorry for the downer but just my mileage

    The store is interesting, at best.....its the rest of the building as the Marathon Auto Company, that most people like. The hands on ability to turn Giant Drill Presses and Lathes can win a few tool head adults, and
    exposure to young ones to touch. I cant think of another place like this, as most machinery is behind ropes for damage and liability concerns.
