My bloody mate bought one at scrap value, a big fecker, could have done anything on it, make pistons, you name it. Then a little while back I saw him, (B4 Covid) and it wasn't there anymore. he didn't use it much so just got rid of it! Fecker! i never even got to play!:(:(:(

Sounded like some bit of kit shame you never got a go. :( I did ask about to see if anyone
wants rid of a lathe, but I can get free use of a newish lathe an milling machine any time I want. :cool::D
 
This is the cause of mi knackerederereredness as I got one side done.,

Got a good bit done today, now working on the 2nd gate whilst the glue is drying on the other one
pic is of the inside, the customer now wants a small pedestrian gate so the chainsaw will be fired up
first thing tomorrow morning to chop up the 5 meter planks. Oh the neighbours will love me. :oops:

Very nice. I am suitably jealous (of course). :)
My little "Toy Machine" is still in the "does this thing actually work" phase.
Some tool-holders turned up today and a bit of bronze rod actually got faced and turned down a tiny bit. I found a few problems just with this simple stuff and the gibs are tighter now but at the expense of ease of travel.
Still learning & getting used to the machine.
Best bit? My home-grown belt change & adjustment is working well and no transmission issues. :D

Probably best to leave the chainsawing until early Sunday morning to avoid annoying the neighbours :rolleyes:
