Hello , It has been several years(!) setting up a small workshop (actually buying and selling so much along the way). I have some nice equipment – Myford 280 lathe and Bridgeport. Nearly retired (have electronics background) so hope to get going in the workshop soon… attempting Rudy Kouhaupt's "Radial Five".

Thank you all for your replies, it's really heart warming to have a friendly welcome from you all. I will keep my reply short, but it would be good to have more involvement through the forum.

Noel, you are fortunate to live in beautiful Norfolk.
