1 forum posts | Hello my name is Nick, I am a retired tech author. I have an elderly sail boat in Somerset, I obtained a Hobbymat lathe a d a drill press so I could make/repair obsolete parts. I converted my garage into a workshop and bought a mini mill and took the next step towards model engineering by obtaining drawing and a set of casting for Canterbury Lamb |
