I have a lathe... well for a few days
🕑 Added 2022-08-09 22:28:07 +0000 UTCSo it took a few days and a bit of begging but I managed to borrow this little lathe for a few days in order to rebuild the foot pump properly. Its been a bit of a steep learning curve as I've never really done much lathe work but now that I've got the feel for it a little I feel like I need to get my own bigger one ASAP as its so much fun learning a new skill and being able to turn my own parts plus it opens a whole new area of restoration / custom building up to me and yourselves ;)
Speak to you all soon,

Have you seen Geoff Croker's restoration of his Myford lathe?
I work at Sheffield Forgemasters. The shop I work in have lathes that hold over 500T between centres. …you’ll be hard-pressed to show me a ‘bigger’ lathe. Lol. Looking forward to plenty of content with your new toy 😃
