This issue contained David Haythornthwaite's excellent article on the adjustable grinding head.>>

 >>

Am I the only person somewhat miffed that the article is incomplete? Insofar that to build the project, you have to purchase a book on how to build the most important part i.e. the spindle assembly.>>

 >>

I sincerely hope that this is not a sign of things to come. - To have half an article in the magazine, then have to buy a book to complete it. This is the first time that I can remember this happening, and I am only missing two issues since No1.

 >>

I hope David can be persuaded to show us the rest of this machine, by means of a full article, or further articles in MEW. He shows the machine on his website.

PS The Spindles book has just been delivered. J>>

Hi There
Tha article was printed as it was useful and informative.
The bearing spindle is copyright to the book company so we could not publish it.
regards David

While I was not that miffed by the missing spindle plans I wonder if plain plans could have been provided.  Showing the overall layout of the spindle.
 
Surely the book's copyright could not cover all spindles ever built and all dimensions.
