Watch her Jim. You know what she's like at a toolshow and a pocket full of money. I saw her in action at Axminster, frightening what she forced you to buy.

What a long day, she bought all sorts of turning items while i tagged along, the only thing that surprised me was when she said, now lets get the f**k out of here ... :ciggrin:

I guess it was because she had done three rounds of the whole hall and got a little tired carrying all the bags ... :thinks:

See the above post regarding the Sue Harker item Peter, the tools with the blue tape on is for scraping glue off the the segmenting parts .. I saw them on a stall and bought them for this reason ... :thumbs:

Ah, I should have recognised the wheel, my very first demo at the club was Dennis Keeling doing an open segmented bowl. I can't remember a special tool for the glue though, you rich people probably don't even use newspaper anymore:winking:

Can't wait to see your open segmented creations.
