Hi, currently I'm making a couple of valve bases for my 833 valves. I have, and have had many hobbies over time, but of late it's mostly hifi related.
I'll reveal more as time goes on. I'm no machinist, just bimble along doing my own thing from time to time learning as I go on.
Currently have a 7x12 and a Smart and Brown model L, the latter I like very much. Lovely machine for a low cost small lathe. Takes 5c collets so most of what I've done I use those.
I'll post some pic's of the valve bases tomorrow.
The main reason I joined up to this site is cos' it has a good feel between inmates.
