Managed to break one half of Rowdy's blank before I even got it on the lathe :sob: I'd blame it on the heat but it's lovely & cool in the shop :nooidea:

So decided it would make a nice key ring for the workshop door key

I'll think of you every time I Lock/unlock Mr Yates :thinks::bwink:

Doug ripper blank mate, do you glue them up or do they screw together my mail box one lost the bottom in our front hedge for two months wont store any 100 dollar notes in one.

The cause was restored by that lovely key ring.
