Oh Blimey I bought a CNC Lathe !!!!
Leblondmakino:
The cream and brown paint scheme gave it away :D
The Partsmaster I have is very similar only 4000 on hours but probably only a few hundred machining hours.
Only problem I've had so far is the polistyrene caps going up in smoke on the Mentor spindle drive. Nearly everyone went at the same time due to damp where it was stored before I bought it. I bought a new set from RS components and replaced them all now it works great.

I continue to look forward to your progress every day knowing full well that very soon you will have all the dots connected and the t's crossed. This is one thread that I look for every time I sit down at the computer. Keep up the good work. :D :D
Cheers :beer:

You ought to nickname that machine Kellog because it's sure a great cereal :poke:
awemawson:
Chaps thanks for the encouraging words - it really gives me a boost to think someone is actually interested and not bored out of their minds by my ramblings :wave: :wave: :wave:
Slow progress today: We are moving sheep, and today wasn't the best choice :doh: as the London to Hastings bike run is on and goes past the farm gate - thousands of motorbikes charging down, and getting a stock trailer out without ending up with bikes impaled in the side involves yellow jackets and lots of flagging down.
Last run now for a couple of hours so back to the beast ......
Fredbare:
Like a lot of others here I have been following this with great interest, and I do admire your tenacity.
John
