Bernd:
This will be a bit off topic, but will be quick.

The reason for the large space was I wanted a ranch house and a large basement for a large modle railroad. Instead I got more interested in model engineering. I'll post a few pics in the Watercooler of what my large space looks like now.

Bogs, so far the only one that has suffered is my other half. That house has been a 12 year project so far and it's still not done.

I can rent you a good space if you ever decided to stay over here on holiday for a few weeks. Room & board are free. Oh and doggy treats for Bandit come along in that package.  :D

Stew, I'm trying to turn that huge space into an orginized machine shop. So far I've failed.  :bang:

Bogs,
I liked that a lot. I will be copying it soon. Thanks for the tip!
What is it that you have above your collet rack and under what looks like some boring bars? They sort of look like rubber drums in different diameters. Are they sanding drums?
Thanks again.

Fred,

They are in fact straight shank expanding mandrels plus a few other specialised bits and pieces.

These were all bought when I was setting up a quick turnaround high precision workshop, but unfortunately over the last few months, that idea has had to be shelved because of personal family problems, and I don't think the idea will be resurrected at any time in the near future. I suppose they will get used in my general workshop machining from now on, if the need arises.

Pelallito:
Bogs,
Sorry to hear about the problems! I hope that they are all in the past, and everything is better now!
Thanks for the reply and I will look at the link in a minute.
Regards,
Fred
