Again, thanks for all your help. V8Eng suggested I contact Landylift and my new-to-me Lathe duly arrived yesterday afternoon. Very professional service with no hiccups.

I am now reading the book of words before firing it up..!

Thanks Harry!

Thanks for your responses both. Weight is something in the order of 310Kg and it needs to be moved from Cumbria to here (Cheltenham).

I’ll have a look at Landylift thanks V8Eng and I’ll drop you a PM Henry.

Thanks again Gents. Yes, Pershore is just up the road from me Henry.

My latest project would appear to be to find a reliable removal company to move a newly purchased Lathe. Any hints would be gratefully received. The site search button doesn’t give any returns to my searches.

I am now able to see the contact details after a further post so all well. Thanks for taking the time to reply gentlemen.

Thanks for the welcome Chaps. I’ll look forward to the journey of discovery to come.

Hi from a long-term lurker on these forums. I’ve finally broken cover simply in order to pursue an item in the classified section... hopefully!

I’ve collected a lathe, a mill and a lot of hand tools over the years although my main interest has remained a fascination with things that fly, which is something I’ve been involved with since short trouser days.

Now, with more time on my hands I’d love to know more about how to set up the lathe and mill, although I have also found that tackling a specific job is a sure way to improve knowledge. The present mini-job on the Little John is a quill collar for the Mill to enable a DRO to be fitted. Prior to that it was four shuttle valves for a model vectored thrust system.

Time flies in the workshop!

I’ve been a long time lurker on this forum and have now spotted something I’d like to buy in the classified section. How many posts must I make to “see” the contact details please? (Hopefully before the item is sold!)
