I have just had a word with him, you were down for 3.55 am but now he's not so sure. The fact that my medication has run out has no bearing on the content of this post,

never heard of that Phil. Where would I get one from. Actually that raises a point that may or may not have any relevance. The tv over my big lathe is a proper cable from socket to TV. Both the monitor and the new TV are thin cable going to a box ( transformer ? ) and then proper cable from...

Thats you crossed off his visit list then. :)

Hi Pete. If that is all it is then it would be easy to deal with. It is true that the position of the extension sockets mean that ALL the cables run close to the lathe motor and the inverter box thingee...... But what about the TV picture going off when I use the sharpener which is four feet...

This gets a bit involved :) I have a lathe with a video camera over it feeding to a TV - No problems, everything works fine. I now want to take the set up out and about so I have brought another, smaller, lathe (Axi 14-16vs ) have the video set up above it and and ( to start with ) a monitor...

Sorry Derek but this is really not up to your usual standard. I have just compared your handle to the Sorby one and there is a .75mm difference. Good job though. :)

I am assuming Chaz intervened and included the pictures ? Thank you.

There are one or two nice designs there. Trouble is they seem to have got rid of some nice designs as well.

I am not trying to have a pop at you Naznomad, as I said, there is nothing stopping it and I agree with your and others comments. It could well build the number of entries. Actually I applaud you. I have made two versions of an entry in the past and then had to decide which was best. Never...

As I am sure you all noticed, somebody made two entries for the Autumn challenge. There is nothing in the rules limiting turners to one entry but I feel it could be a double edged sword. I would be interested in hearing the thoughts of all the entrants and those of people who just like to...

Good video. I use O'Donnell jaws almost exclusively now but I have sometimes wondered how strong a grip they are providing The mortice or tenon are very shallow, probably no more than about 4mm.

UK time Bubba. Don't make my life any more confusing than it already is. :)

I like the concept.
