Hi, new member here.

I've had my Warco mini lather for just over ten years now but not given it much use so I'm here hoping to inspire myself and learn new skills. I have made the odd part and also tuned my air rifle with bits made on the Warco. Motorbikes are a love of mine but as yet I've not made anything for any of the ones I have now or previously owned.

That may change in the future...

Simon

Simon,

Good evening, I live in Bedfordshire and restore petrol Stationary Engines, Listers, I refurbish and make parts for them and any household bits and pieces including Knobs for saucepan lids.

Hi Martin.

I love engines of all types and used to own a Petter A2 (I think). Single cylinder side valve, weighed a ton sort of thing. It had to go a couple of years ago when I moved here though. I'd forgotten that I did make some bushes to account for wear in the carb/governor linkage on it. Hopefully one day I will have another.
