6 forum posts 9 photos	MERRY CHRISTMAS everybody, Well went to Jarrow on 22nd and picked up the lathe with loads of tooling it's an absolute beauty and an old industrial stand. Spent the last two days stripping the cabinet back to bare metal as it was 1/2 gray 1/2 green. Not easy getting the paint off but just held the heat gun on and done an inch at a time. When I got to the rear of the cabinet it was like scraping a football field, but all done now and buffed down with a wire wheel and then emery paper, BnQ tomorrow for some red lead undercoat awaiting green Myford paint delivery, was going to post a few pick but think I have to upload to site first. All The Best. Jacky
