Hi All, I'm a mechanical engineer with an interest in woodwork and fixing things. This includes restoring old machines, mainly big, old and heavy woodworking machines which I've been collecting over some decades for personal use. I may be posting with questions on old 'arn, machine refurbishments or just to show progress on those and maybe on assorted woodwork topics, possibly wood turning on my monster Wadkin RU lathe, as I get my dream workshop in order after a long journey accumulating my tool and machinery collection.
Looking forward to chatting on-line.
Cheers,
Richard
