You need that Lathe AlanLast edited by wheelinround; 22nd January 2017 at 08:07 PM. Reason: encourge him to buy the lathe he'll need.

Nah Wheelin', I still get giddy, but don't forget that, unlike with a lathe, MY timber stays still?

Fletty, when the paw is ok, wander down the hill and have a go on the Yellow Peril. I'll even give you some safety tips

Who's the lucky boy then?
For many years I have avoided Facebook but put my little toe in the cold and deep water only a few weeks ago. Timbecon were running a 'tell-us-why-you-need' competition for an Arbortech Contour sander. I have lusted after one for a while now and so I entered on the basis of the sanding required on the carved parts of my daybeds....

Now I'm not a lucky kind of soul. I would for instance starve to death if I was reliant on winning a meat tray or chook raffle at the local but, thanks to Timbecon, I am now the lucky owner of an Arbortech Contour Sander! I don't have any daybeds at the sanding stage BUT, I do have a pile of badly chewed solid timber wheels that I made before discovering the plywood solution so.....

.... my first trial has been to see if I can reclaim any of these chewed up solid timber wheels and the answer is YES!
Many thanks to Timbecon and Arbortech, the Contour Sander works a treat!

PS, I am now looking at making a short run of fine timber, fine finish Indian Straight Fours (like these...But where will he sit GaGa?)a rock is an obsolete tool ......... until you don’t have a hammer!
