    Default Boy::::::: talk about nuts!!!!!!!

    Got bored this eveinging and was looking for something to do while my wife went shopping.

    I had bolted pads to the bottom of the Wadkin PK slider to level it to the general TS table and just bolted it from the top in to t nuts with what was at hand last year. I never liked the looks of the bolts,but there just bolts right? so what is wrong with me. why would anyone spend time on this. If you suffer form this sickness talk me through it. I must be nuts!!!!!!!!

    the bolt that was provoking me

    here's what i made
    I will let the pic tell the story.

    Hi Jack,

    Well mate, having seen the detail on your restorations, Wadkin Lathe, DR Bandsaw and the PK, I would have thought you were 'loosing it' if you allowed that horrible hardware bolt to stay on your machine.

    So, an evening well spent I say. They look terrific. This means you are quite normal or possibly we are both nuts.

    Love your work.

    Cheers
    Pops
