    Thanks Dave, but I don't think I have seen any of your kit, Ill take a look at your past posting, your 24' Wolfenden Thicknesser already has me curious, wish I was there on the Australia day weekend helping you guys out too.
    If you get a chance to post about it or even some pic's would be sensational, no pressure ...

    G'day Matty,


    Here is the link to the get together

    https://www.woodworkforums.com/f25/wwf-australia-day-weekend-2015-jerilderie-191049

    I hope to be updating with pics throughout the event.

    There should be a couple of posts of the equipment I have, about 12 pieces in all that I got from a joinery.

    I also have a total of 15 lathes from small to larger. All of them feature at some point I think, Not sure if I posted the latest lathe or not, its a mystery lathe



    I got this one for free

    I've moved some cuckoo stuff into the backyard here ... including a 2-pole car hoist.

    A few times the go has been
    ... object tied down tight to the 12' x 4' single-axle trailer
    ... wheels of the trailer chocked from behind
    ... a good rope around the trailer hitch and from there around the tow-bar a few times
    ... undoing the trailer hitch, and gradually letting the trailer down on its rear end
    ... roping the object fully down to the ground level with gravity-assist if necessary
    ... tying object to the garage and/or large botanicals
    ... tying the trailer axle to the towbar and gradually moving the trailer away.

    Or there is heli-lift, if you have a mate in the air-force or police ??

    Cheers,
    Paul

    Thanks Dave, the mystery lathe is a big beefy boy, a heap of cast there !!
    Thanks for the Australia day invite too, Im afraid I will be doing my annual pilgrimage to the Fryers town Antique fair, this will be my 25th year.
