Ideal for pen turning Mat, i don't doubt you could almost do scrolling on this? :thinks:

35 years on and she (War Office) still spends as if we are loaded. :goesred: Good to know we don't have to retire at 65 any more. :funny:

The complete 'Turd' has relinquished on the deal, and sold it someone else, for a higher than advertised price.

Looks like a Charnwood 10" which i used to have a while ago Matty, it was a great little machine. I used to have it with a high tpi blade on it for my segmenting etc, it is ideal for blanks and maybe antler too. :devil:
