I made a home made lathe yesterday!
Bread Knife caught me and dialled 99 into the phone in readiness.
Needless to say, it failed after 2 secs and I was made to take it apart immediately.
Apparently I should have more respect for my own mortality!
I think you need to meet owelly. In particular, have a look in his garage.....

As for the swarf... I bought a Tesco Value Vacuum Cleaner for £19:99. Its done stirling service.
Hoover up the swarf in the car as you go, and I sweep / vac the garage floor as well.
It makes the job easier and tidier.
Damn Swarf gets everywhere and digs into the bottom of yous shoes as well.
Buy Swafega or simmilar in 25 Litre trade pack size, its cheaper. Same for oil!!
Take the wife tea in bed on Sunday mornings before retreating into the garage / shed / workshop. Its a small price to pay.

Now I've got two Locosts (It's a long story) I get
" This house looks like a car showroom why can't you move that car, why have I got to park on the road, why can't one of them go
outside (No roof you silly bitch), why can't I have a new dress....etc...etc,"
basically she just gets more and more shrill until only dogs can hear her.
I ignore it all.
Wait until I get the single seater.......
Cheers
Chris

I'm tempted by a single seater. All she does is complain about me driving to fast and trying to go sideways everywhere! She'd also have no
idea how much i spend on fuel either.
