Kind regards,

Brilliant, that works a treat. Thanks Adrian.

It's not blocked by chrome, and newer issues of the mag work ok. Not sure really, was just bringing it to your attention.

Thanks

Cheers Jason.

Hi all, not sure if this is the same for everyone but I cant view any of the archived issues from 277 back. I get an Adobe Flash error saying that it isn't up to date but the newer issues work ok.

EDIT: Apparently this is only on Chrome browser. Internet explorer seems to work ok.

Hi Tony

I will try and organise a visit soon, just had a baby so free time is like gold dust at the moment.

Cheers

Morning Graham, Howard,

Thanks for the warm welcome.

Howard, do they have a website or anything?

Thanks

I think you have all named everyone I watch.

Watching their videos does however fill me with a sense of ability that I quite clearly don't have yet but practice makes perfect.

Hi John,

Thanks for the reply.

Its the belt drive with 2 speed gearbox version.

Ok, next payday I will order it up and get it done. Its the last piece to the puzzle so may aswell do it right!

Hi Brian,

I have been thinking about doing some spinning tops in brass and stainless.

I think I will get some practice in first though.

Hi everyone, new here.

My names Jim, from Northampton and I currently have a Boxford AUD lathe and a Medddings MF4 drill press.

Been a fan of machining for quite some time but now finally have a change to get into it properly.

Hi Guys,

I have just refurbished a Meddings MF4 drill press but the quill spring, as is a common thing, is broken.

Meddings would like £30 for a new, old stock replacement. I think this is rather pricey and was wondering if anyone has any experience with the ebay versions and which one I would need to replace my damaged one.

Cheers
