You won't by any chance help out us coloinals by giving us a hint. Some of us don't get that magazine or a web site might help if it's in there.

OH, it won't be you would it?

Yes very well done it is always nice, when you can get the attention of editors and some ink!

Thanks chaps it was something I wasn't expecting and it was only by chance that I read it.

I've not been very active in the shop for over a week now, the reson is that I was maching some wood for a friend I think the wood was Teak. The next morning I woke up looking like I'd been in a boxing match eyes closed up bright red rash over my face and more delicate areas:- I now know why you should wash your hands before you go to the toilet, wash room, lavatory, or what ever the polite way you have of saying going for a piss, I let you draw your own picture.

Doc put me on antihismine tablets thet send you to sleep they warn you not to drive or operate machinery, and some cream, I had an alergic reaction to the resin or oils in the wood, any way getting over it now stopped taking the pills and I've just started to make a 7" face plate, I'll post a pic later.

Cheers

Stew
