Ray et al sorry been incommunicado. October last my uncle and a guiding star to engineering / wood working died and we've been sorting out so busy! Finally finished off the spiral staircase he part built 25 years ago with cousins husband, I always promised him we'd get it finished when he gave the go ahead. Ray Blackwood and red gum :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: Just started cutting up some "pallet wood", very brittle and heavy, damn hard came from India with the marble for me mates barn conversion. Haven't a clue what it is but maybe able to make apples etc. Unless tool razor sharp it breaks out even on end grain :hammer: :hammer: Currently finding space for partially finished 1 1/2 Alchin traction engine plus all casting for the same. Also inherited a George Thomas VDH and Potts drill grinding jig plus bags of small tooling. I'd still rather have my guiding light though... But he left quickly and leaves fond memories. Ian |

The first big boot sale down here at Pedham Place is supposed to be tomorrow but the weather is looking bad so it's likely to get cancelled :( |
