Hi guys, thanks for your comments re. my workshop.  That's a very nice workshop space that you have created, George, very well ordered and equipped, and inviting to spend your leisure time in.
  Brendon, glad that my photos have been encouraging for your own plans for a modest sized shop.   I'd be pleased to have additional room, as most of us would be, but there is a great deal that can be done with the average garage sized space. Certainly it's room enough to make the sort of relatively small engine projects that this forum mostly showcases an excellent proposition. They don't need massive equipment or big working room like a large traction engine or hefty loco might do.
Cheers, Dave

Surprisingly well considering; that was my first concern when I bought them, but as I have never produced 'blue chips' I can't vouch for heat resistance, mind you I have had a few 'hot' pieces go down the front of my shirt off the mill,  :embarassed:   I brush / hoover up every couple of sessions & swarf sweeps / hoovers up easily enough, apart from some small bits that have been 'trodden in', they have been laid for about 3 yrs now so I can't complain really.

George.

Chris,  That is a fantastic looking shop.  It would be nice if we could get some of those machines here.  We can find them occasionally, but the prices get rather extreme.
