The bar ends were an experiment and the first things I made, designed to fit on any on bike with with 7/8" bars.
The tool is to enable me to set my tool height without disturbing the tail stock. The idea is that you adjust the gauge so that it's height is the same as the lathe centre. So that when I change a tool all I have to do is check the tool height against my gauge.
My background is avionics (ex RAF) but over the years I've picked up some other skills while restoring bikes, cars and various household appliances that my wife and kids break.
My teaching involves woodwork, metalwork (including turning) and motor mechanics.

Spen... gonna yank on your leg a little... What kinda bike did you make the barends for? I am a bike nut... so I would be very interested in hearing about what you have. Go in to the powersports section and look for my CF kickstand i build.

I run a 1500 Goldwing, unfortunately it has got to go.
I can't get my leg over any more.

Bikes, Ok.
I have a: 1956 Velocette LE mk2, 1975 Triumph 750 Bonnie (both under going long term restoration), 1989 Honda CG125 (that I use for work and what the bar ends were made for), 1989 Harley Electra Glide Sport (my big baby) and a Suzuki Intruder trike (that's my wife's but thanks to my eldest son smashing it up it's awaiting the touch of my healing hands).
As you all like pics I've added a couple.
