John, I really love your videos, we did away with a TV years ago as both me and my other half are do-ee people.  Now I have a square eye addiction watching your videos.  Keep it up mate, they are gems.

Looking forward to part 3.

I can't quite make it out but at 25 minutes are you just using regular centre drills to start the 2 holes offset from the centre for the grub screws? I've always just avoided drilling holes like that.

Just a small centre drill

Hi John,

                           Another useful video, I am pleased you showed the use of the fixed steady, as you remarked, it is seldom used because lathe owners don't know how to use it. Now they have no excuse for using this useful item.

                                     Cheers David

Another top class video John  :bow: :bow: :clap: , As David says , good to see things like the three point steady getting used, I had been wondering about when you drilled that bar for the grub screws but had wondered if you had milled a small flat to stop the drill wandering , looks like you didnt need to.................Keep them coming lad .

  Cheers Mick.
