Just wish the bearings could be replaced as easily as tapered rollers.

Everyone managed to get some this time. Although we waited until Groggy went home. We made Skew eat the last bit under sufferance.

Robomaniac...here are some pics of one of the offcuts from your wood you found (made it after getting home)

It turned up nice but still damp so bound to move and or ripple. The finish is shellawax
Size is about 120mm dia and 50mm deep.
Cheers,

That does look good - well done. That sort of figure was the sort of thing I was hoping for so I can't wait to get into the rest of it.


DJ - YOUR blade indeed, your generosity will not be forgotten even after I have placed my own order and returned the favour

Thanks DJ for the great turn, the BBQ, the demos and of course the good company.

Indeed it was fun. To you all, especially DJ

Ahh looks like it a great time to me, might have to get a lathe, a check flannelet shirt, grow a beard, get a veranda over the tool shed but the purple pants may be going a little too far.

PS I can make ripper chocolate ripple cakes, with King Island cream, absolute decadence!
