Hi Guys

Thanks for those few kind comments and the slight bits of wit , I will try and contribute what I can in engineering terms when Im a little less tired , unfortunately I have Osteo Arthritis in my spine , hands feet and knees as well as Cervical spondilosis in my neck , Chronic Obstructive airways disease among other conditions and sometimes when the wether isnt too good it wears me down with the Pain and Fatigue, Im Ill health retired and I have worked in Engineering since leaving school and I will be 65 in just over a year and a half , Oh I forgot to say I have vibration White finger and I struggle now to work with small objects but I struggle along , I make all sorts of things when I cn but must admit that Gun Smithing is my main Enjoyment these days but I can turn my hand to most things to do with Machining or Engineering .

I have a Axminster Metal lathe CQ6230 with Suds Pump ,unfortunately its the older model without the Double taper roller bearings and double helical gears which makes for easier quieter running , Ive got a 4 jaw indipendant chuck a 4 jaw sef centring chuck and a 3 jaw self centring chuck a ER32 lathe Collet Chuck , a Precision ER32 collet chuck with a 40mm x 100mm straight shank a Precision C40 ER40 collet chuck with 40mm x 100 mm straight shank, ER 40 collet set & ER32 Collet set and loads of Calipres and Micrometers of all sorts ! all sorts of cutter tools and accessories ! Drills Taps Dies etc etc.

I have an Elliot Victoria Universal Milling Machine with a Swiveling Machine Table 45 Degree with a Horizontal milling Shaft and Vertical Swivelling Tilting Head with suds Pump and Main Tank all sorts Drill chucks & Collet Cutter chucks all types of cutters and cutter heads and slitting saws and clamps etc

I have a Clarke CBS45MD Metal Cutting Bandsaw

I have a Large Bench Drill

I have a Clarke 8" Bench Grinder & Sealey 6" Bench Grinder & a Kaindl BSM 20 Drill Grinder

I think one of my motor stat up Capacitors has gone on my Lathe now too its either a 35mfd or a 200mfd Capacitor so Ive got that to sort out now !

I do hope that I can join in with you guys a little more in the near future , but I will close for now take care all of you.

Hi All

Still cannot access these pages and posters in the Classified section even after being told by Moderators like Jason B , It would be fine I think that after enjoying this forum for some considerable time I might have to say goodbye to it also , its simply not worth all the extra hassle to me , it looks as though this could be the beginning of the end for this good forum ! Bye

All the best
