    Default Rivetting Woodwork

    This is a blog from one of the members of the Rivett 608 Yahoo group. He has just finished making a new oak stand for his 608. Yeah i know its woodwork, but i can think of a few of you that will hopefully enjoy it.
    Well done Andy!

    There is something very nice about flat belt drives on machines, & seeing good woodwork.
