    Hi Toni,
    Just had a look at pics including those of the pocket
    watch. With the size of that lathe I would think you
    can contract to replace "Big Ben" in England.

    Good luck!

    Allan

    Talking Love your work

    Toni
    Waht more would a man want if he was into wood work, it would be his wife loving just as much as he does.
    But I would have to say that I have been a wood work for 30 years, have two trades, and I have a Woodfast M910 late, I have to admit it you leave me for dead with the work that you are doing on your pens.
    I had a look at your web site and really do love the work you are completing,.
    Keep it up, look forward to seeing at lot more of your work.
