Hi , only me. Just need help with my Axminster CCL lathe. (Each time I read about this model of lathe I find out it is older than I thought it was.) Again, the A to my Q is probably staring me in the face, but what does the extension bed do? I thought it was to increase the distance between...

I have just noticed that I have two, yes, two user names. One that I started the other day and one from way back? It's strange how the server let them both exist. That seems to be a theme with me just recently. I have a debit card with two, yes, two pin numbers. Having visited the bank to...

I got 100% in the first three maths etc. tests and they figured I just go to the joinery and carry on. I had worked with my...
