Thanks for the welcome,

i'd never thought of the danger of sawdust, so thanks for that. May have to get in to some work earlier than I thought.

Hi all,

Coming up to retirement and planning projects and toys to keep me occupied outside of the travel, walking and motorhoming which takes up my spare time now.

40years in engineering and fancying a lathe, initially just to build / rebuild and learn some skillls. Projects will be based mainly around the machines themselves modifications and upgrades. Changing out or updating the 3phase electrics.

I've been browsing for some time and already made a purchase of an ex-schools Boxford. It has been yearly serviced mechanically and electrically pat tested up to mid 2022. Latterly in its life it has been used for wood turning judging by the amount of wood chips and dust everywhere. Every cupboard door and safety screen has ben interlocked.

Unfortunately had to strip the lathe for transport and locating in to the garage, the drive is very steep and unloading options minimal. One of the reasons I went for the boxford.

I'm sure there will be many questions later, but for now this introduction was as much a thank you for all the posts i've read so far.
