I own a mini lathe (chinese copy from Jet) and a Nova 1624-44 lathe.

Hello Claude and welcome to the best forum in the land downunder and I am being fairdinkum.
A countryman of yours "Benoit Averly" is one of my favourite turners. Are you aware of his work?
I agree that your English is good so no need to apologise about it in future.

welcome claude
Hi Claude,
Welcome to the forum. I have wonderful memories of spending 5 days in Strasbourg over Christmas 2001. Nothing like a white christmas. Doesn't happen down here, usually about 30 degrees plus (in the shade)
A beautiful place you live in there. Great food and wine.
Cheers and welcome again
Frank

I've been to Strasbourg a couple of times and quite like it there, mainly for the choucroute, tarte flambé and vins d'alsace...
Welcome!
