MJ,
Where did you find the pic? Is it a lathe for sale here in Oz as I would love to get one for my boys to play on (the picture looks American though). Looks like it would also be good for having on a market site to pass the time turning pen barrels.

Anyone else have "PowerMite" woodworking tools toys by Ideal?

I've got the circular saw, drill, sander, and jigsaw.

See here (http://www.samstoybox.com/toys/Powermite.html) for pics (not mine).

They also made some other workshop machines, and there's some on ebay currently (also nothing to do with me, just bringing back memories :rolleyes:)
