New Project

[Martin WParticipant @martinw]

hi Nobby

It's beginning to look pretty good, well in fact like new . It's really nice to see a piece of old kit coming back to life again and being given a new start, super job so far and I can't wait to see the pictures when you have finished it.

Magic

Cheers

Hi Martin
Thank you for your comments about my latest project . There's a long way to go as you can see.
I dont know how long it will take. It depends what needs doing around the house ?

Hi Nick
Thank you for your interest in my Exe lathe

I am been looking at the X slide today. seems pretty good

My comments about the keats angle plate were off beam. By a weird coincidence I found some letters on the topic while reading an old ME in the bath..

Exe took over manufactur of the Keats Angle Plate before the war, and continued to hold some stock until the early 2000s.
