Jeremy clarkson to host have i got news for you that great
bobh replied to mendiplogs's topic in The Lounge
Just been reported that Clarkson has pulled out of HIGNFY. Didn't hear why though -
Great to hear they've got you out of bed, if they chuck you outside for an extra 15 minutes everyday then by my calculations you'll be living outdoors in 96 days

Just seen my first here, quite surprised this far north. Felt sorry for the little fellow as there's very few insect for him to eat
-
Its been great to read all these installments, well done to all involved with getting this vital work done, not forgetting the generous sponsors.

Lovely bowl that, wouldn't know it's your first 👏👏

I know how you feel mate, was in the same psitionmyself 2 years ago and its seriously stressful. Which side of Taunton are you?
-
This guy is a genius, lovely work. Anyone from Derbyshire know him?

I think you've hit the nail on the head, The reason I didn't reply to your original question is that I just couldn't make out what it was so had no idea whether it was of any use to anybody. As to what sort of growth it is, I've just no idea but if I came across it I'd probably take it home and stick it on the lathe to see what happened

Forgot the picture

Well thanks to Dan Earp I've got myself a Nova DVR XP, bought from the same place as he got his. They are a very large wood turning club who were replacing 5 nova dvr's and were selling off their old ones. Picked it up yesterday and got it in place this morning, had a little play an its so much smoother than the old coronet that it replaces. I'll be quite sad to see the old girl going though, she's punched far above her weight for me but I was just coming to the limits of her ability.

Great first race looked like the ducati had it at 3 laps to go. Good to see some racing, shame the same can't be said for the f1

I can only guess what you're going through mate, Thinking of you, stay strong

Just had a quick google and the spindle thread is 3/4 x 16tpi which is great because you'll be able to pick up any extras you need easily. Not sure what Morse taper it is but I'd be very surprised if its not a mt1 both ends. Take Steve up on his offer and all will become clear 👍
-
You put that on top of your lathe just to rub it in didn't you 😁😁
-
Glad to bear its not finished, it didn't have finish that you normally get on your stuff. Off to Edinburgh tomorrow, can't wait👍
-
Nice design mate, a few tool marks in the bottom, why you using for sanding?
-
I've just got a great image of the night staff taking bets as to who can p. you off the most. First nurse. "I'll go and ask him about tomorrows supper, that'll really annoy him" Second nurse "That's nothing, I'm going in with the suppositories" Put a smile on my face 😁😁

Stay strong mate, good to see you posting
-
Its great to see you guys in action, well to to all concerned.

We once had a job splitting a stable yard in half with post and rail fence, it was a traditional type of yard with wooden stables around 3 side of the yard. We measured it all out and concreted the posts in, came to fit the rails only to find we were 2" short of the stable, ended up cutting 2" of the rail at the other end and telling the customer that we stopped the rails short so there was no way they would ever rub on the side of the stable, she was over the moon with our idea!

Tell her to stop mucking about and get on with it! Doesn't she know you've got important things like turning to do
-
At which point you'll probably be far too busy to get in the workshop 😁😁
