    This one is going CNC, so a very different life to a manual machine.

I am sure it will be a very different machine by the time your finished with it Joules  :dremel:  , well unless the dog  eats it first  :lol:

You planning on getting the young lad involved with the conversion ?

Joules:
I hope so, plan on teaching him to use a dial gauge so he can measure play in all the ways and get a feel for too loose and too tight, plus it will be an exercise in how things work.  I can see next years Doncaster Show being fun for him.  He should just have enough knowledge by then to be dangerous.

I watched it to the end....it sold at its starting price....
I didnt buy it, 'er-indoors' said" you dont know what you are buying..." Good point...I guess...plus the fact that its 2/3rds the cost of a new machine and I would have had the aggro of collectiing from Wales...

Ah well, I'll keep looking dreaming... :coffee:
