It's light and cold - a heavy frost overnight. The wee one's out enjoying the cool kip.

I see nothing wrong with reversing over a suspect if necessary.

Oh let’s order the RSPB bird thingy. Oh no, due to demand we aren’t posting out anymore so you can download some crap off the inter web. Do people not realise the potential a project like this will drive when folk is locked down at home. Bellwhackers, this is Packham’s doing
Morning All
Proper cold this morning, frost on the lawn and brilliant blue clear skies.
Herself went for the paper and her Ma's shopping and came back decidedly frozen.
Down to my last few stove-full's of firewood.
Days are getting longer now, soon be Spring.
Have a smashing day everyone

I had a dabble with my new lathe yesterday, nothing "made" but just trying it out on whatever round stock I had to hand.
Having done all the usual "adjustments & fixes" for a lathe of this calibre I wanted to see how well/poorly it would cut and what kind of finish it would leave.
I am quite pleased with the results. Having purchased it purely on a whim, I now need to think of some things to build.
From left to right we have Aluminium, Phosphor-Bronze, Mild Steel. All came out quite well. Hand-fed not using the lead-screw.
The scoundrels that sold me the lathe (with all the faults and a drive-train that ate itself in <3Hrs) have asked me to provide +ve feedback on their eBay ID.
Not going to happen.

They are looking superb, the finish is very good. A bit of a cheek asking for positive feedbackI had a dabble with my new lathe yesterday, nothing "made" but just trying it out on whatever round stock I had to hand.
