A really worthwhile job there 
Hi Philly
The tool furthest away, is it a round saw?
I can't quite tell
it is a festool ts55 track saw
the mutts nuts
no kickback whatsoever
not sure how i survived without this
changed my way of how to make things tbh
it is a life changer.. or at the least...how to do something without the right tools
makes such at difference to the hardest of jobs
at least that is how i justify it's cost

Only a Military show at Sellinge if I had a card machine I could have sold 4 possibly 5 rifle pens I also had interest from others in them later on but until it is firm I will not hold my breath.

I would love to be able to fit one of my circular saws to a guide like that.

Recently the car has developed a lurch every now and again so leaving the Docs place this morning before I got really under way it was bad for a little while so I quietly drove a short distance to a garage, while I waited the guy walked to a dealer nearby and half an hour later fitted at my suggestion a new fuel filter the car is 2001 model Daewoo Leganza. I feel I guessed right it goes like the clappers now onlycharged a half hrs labour nice people around for whom I am most grateful.

hopefully not grow out of it too soon
this is 1400mm long (4'6" in real money)
and will convert into a childs bed (pics to follow)..reminded me why i had a spare length left...so I haven't finished
all that oak: I guess is the last and only time in my life I will get the pleasure to work with so much of it
have to say ...it is damn heavy

That is brilliant.
I would like to thank everyone for their kind words on this build
I realise that it is not pen turning
but we all do other stuff, don't we ?
made me quite humble to make this one (and the last)
next project won't be a pen either
but I will get back on track soon...promise
