    OMG, that looks scary. Glad to hear you got out of it without serious injury, although by the sounds of it you are probably going to be a bit sore and sorry for yourself for a few days.

    Despite the incident with the lathe it was a still a good day because I finally got the drill apart. Just need to remember not to let your guard down with machines! Safety First.

    Default Finished article

    I was going to wai until I had it mounted on a new board but here is what it is looking like back in working condition. Just missing the little pawl.








    Along way from the seized (every joint, part, shaft, etc) chunk of rust it started as, no original paint on it!

    Well done DSEL, bringing that rusty old mess back from the brink of death brava

    I'm still not sure about the colour though. Maybe "no ... paint on it" had some merit

    Looking forward to your next one...
