When do you build the small wobbler with 1mm stroke and 0.8mm bore :insane:(just kidding)
I'm going to start a 3-1/2" Tich tread soon. A model engineering society is sending me one that I will have to finish (best thing is they are sending it as a present, though there aint any castings. but he asked his buddies in England if they have some castings.) It's in transit now and will be here by Friday ;D

Oh yes... before I forget. I promised for some pics on the new wobbler I'm building.  It's in "Homemade Barstock Engines- Own Design"  Scratch Building a "mini" Wobbler. :whoohoo:
Kind regards

Welcome to the forum Marinus.
Lucky you! 14 with a lathe. I had to wait until I was 57  :Lol:
Don't worry about a mill. It's amazing what you can do with the lathe.
Enjoy!
