    Oh dear, Baxter. I should have written before.
    Yes, the tips you all gave me worked well. The bench is 2" thick with 3 sets of 3 X 3 legs, rag bolted into the concrete floor (thank the lord for SDS drills!) and still just the slightest touch of vibration. So hung a strong shelf under the bench from directly below the left end of the motor housing to about 2 feet along the bed and filled it with several bags of
    builders sand.
    My son-in-law is a toolmaker and says they used to fill the bases of new lathes with about 3" of concrete to stiffen 'em up! That would do it you reckon?
    As for Rumpole, the rump is what I need to get down by about 2 stone!

    Really good now.
