Stuart 10H and 10V build thread

Hi David

Not seen any further on your Start 10 V / H build...?

George

Not so much a comment on 'first wage' (but it was £13/10/0 per month in Sept '62, plus £3/7/6 a week living allowance as I was away from home as an engineer cadet with a shipping company - remember them, we used to have lots of them, back in the days when we had a merchant navy) - more a comment on the VAT rate in 1973 of just 10%. Wow, we didn't know we were born!

Been told now we have to have the VAT rate where it is because our rulers in the EU insist that is what it must be and we are not free to change it. If that is the case then we know what to do come the ref.

!0%. Wonderful!

Hi there not been very well. It will continue. I struggle to stand up and tend to fall over. Blood test results later today, might need another transfusion. Already had 5 this year. I just hope the cancer is not back.

Best wishes to you, hope the results are good.

Hope the news is good David, all best wishes for your complete recover.

Chris

You need to set up so you can sit at the lathe and work bench. Keep warm , and don't over do it. Best wishes.

Take it easy mate, all the best.

Best wishes David; know how worrying it can be ... been there, got the T shirt... 61/2 yrs remission now.

Not to worry on the build; at your own pace, will just keep eyes open for latest post, take it easy...

Apparently mainly vitamin d deficiency making me very tired. They have given me a supplement and I already have the health lamp for vitamin d. Main problem is the front room is like the black hole of Calcutta at this time of year.

Take care David - Hope you are feeling better soon and able to reunite with your workshop.

Troglodyte, you'll have to get out of the cave every now and then.

Look after yourself David.

Keep taking the tablets, perhaps you need to migrate to sunnier climes for winter.

Hi All,

I've had a part built stuart 10v for about a year now.

I bought it from this forums for sale ads.

I thought I'll have a good look at this and then complete it.

All I have done is look at it!!!!! ......I'm not going to finish it.

It's currently listed in the for sale ads, includes all parts and the work done is to a high standard

Also included, drawings, the Andrew Smith book and a stuart catalogue. It needs a good home!!!!

regards geoff

Hi All'

Could I thank members for their interest in the 10v and sorry to anyone who may have been disappointed.

It sold very, very quickly.

I have now removed the advert

thanks geoff

Hi David, wish you well, keep your sprite up and don't give in.

Regards Nick.

Hi, in my fist job in '68, I was earning £3.00 and something p/w and after the first year it went up by a pound. Didn't get a third year as I moved on, but got a three fold rise to £12.00 and something p/w. In '73 was earning about £16.00 p/w and I was still classed as junior fitter.

Regards Nick.
