Martin. Left handed files come in the same class as left handed spanners, left handed screwdrivers and left handed hammers.

Let's not forget the left handed hacksaw

My mum was left handed. At school she had her knuckled rapped by the teacher because it was wrong to write with your left hand. OK. My mum could write left handed right handed & inside out ,so to read her writing you had to look at it through a mirror. Best of all worlds I guess. Steve. Same for me left handed from birth they tried to 'knock' it out of me in both infant and junior school even to the point of bleeding knuckles, so now I,m ambidextrous but tend to write with my right hand. The funny side of this was at school I got a reputation when playing cricket by receiving a few ball's with a right hand stance then as the bowler was running up changing stance H

Speak to a heating engineer and get the small blower as used on most gas boilers and fit a 12v or motor to suit your application. They often fail and are changed so a scrapper is all you want. Good luck. Noel That's what I'm currently using, I did have a 12V old fashioned heater blower motor which was easy to adapt H

Machine DRO sell small single and double readouts compatible with their various scales they sell
Plus their embedded version for the S7 cross slide requires no extra room behind the lathe the very reason I went that route
