This is the old. It’s cold, it’s damp and although it’s served it’s purpose, it’s time to go.

Now this turning has got a hold of me, I have built something suitable and it’s dry and warm:thumbs:

It’s just about finished, so I’ll be back making pens and enjoying this forum:thumbs:

Looking good Craig, although working upside down might help with the shavings,
It’s not good for the head. ��

Looking forward to seeing the inside fitted out..

I would not advise towing that down the M6 for the family holiday...

Our Australian friends maybe able to give advise on working in that manner as it’s normal for them isn’t it?:thinks:

Kevin:banana:

:funny: inside is just about done, but it’s full of off cuts, etc, etc, so I’ll have a tidy up and put some pics on.......... after I work out how to post them the right way up!!!

Regards

Craig

Here you go Craig. Now it's the same as your caravan - you're used to working that way round, it'll be much easier for you.

(Those bloody flat pack instructions are never any good)! !! :devil:

It will float better that way up when the heavens open up again, might need a bit of ballast?

It truly is a cracking workshop, I was at Craigs yesterday picking up the lathe I bought from him, actually he let me steal it and included enough goodies to get me turning, Top shed and a Top guy:thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:
Just got the lathe into the loft, due to having a chainblock attached to the rafters, lifting it was no probs but carrying it up the loft ladder was toooooop dodgy
Cheers
