More Castings

[Jo]

I have finally found someone with even more  castings that I have and he is trying to entice me to go and visit him by sending me photos of desirable things. He tells me each of these blue boxes has a different set of castings in it and he expects to be able to build about 2% of the models he has castings for and is looking for a home for some of them  .

Trying to keep myself control intact...I don't really need more castings...there might be the odd  engine in there.... must be try to be good 

Edit: forgot to mention he is also suggesting that his Sixis 101 might look good in my Library.

Edit: If you have a slow connection please note I have added versions of the photos of the casting hoard that are of a lower resolution.

Repeat after me ... "I don't need more castings, I don't need more castings ...."

That is quite a horde of cast material.

Self control is way, way over rated.

  It might be  and he also has a Schaubin 102 that he tells me I need.

Surely you can't pass up a Schaublin - from the lathes website they look uber desirable!

With the rate you turn out models your other lathes must be getting worn out, plus with the recent electrical gremlins doesn't it make sense to get a few more machines as back up

The ergonomics of the Sixis look odd with the handle for the x-axis at the rear of the machine

Looks like Jo is trying to make room for some of Erics offerings as I see she has placed an advert for one of her surplus lathes
