Hi Brian thanks yes dad as usual is corrects ha ha. I am pretty hands on here I mainly restore agricultural machinery mainly tractors and general metal fabrication, I have normally got a few to many projects on the back burner, when it get more time I will add some of my projects.

Dads has an old Grayson lathe for a number of years, its always been big enough to get by and anything bigger that need work gets sent out for turning, now he has got me a Colchester i am hoping to learn more and do more in house if and when I get it fixed up.

Cheers
