Lee from Leeds
« on: January 03, 2010, 02:10:29 PM »
Hello All

Found this site at the start of the Christmas break and have spent some time reading the old posts.

I have a garage full of old machines, Colchester master lathe, Cinci mill, Elliott Shaper etc etc

I have a list of roundtuits a mile long and can't stop adding to them ( or buying them.... mmmn )

I really need to finish off  the wk/shop before I get into any thing else!

I'd like to make tools, wood working tools that is.

If I get inspired I'll get some pics up.

Lee.

Welcome to the collective Lee.  :borg:

Looks like you've made a friend in Gerhard. Now let's get that workshop done so you can start making some tools.

We do need some pics of that shop though.  :thumbup:

Regards,
Bernd

I would like to see and hear more about your Elliott Shaper, tooling and your experiences.  I have the 24" Invicta Major.

Hi Raymond

While waiting to get inspired remember that  :worthless:. I would like to see what wood working tools you are making when you have the chance. I think you will find the guys on here a good bunch and always ready to help out if they can.  :ddb: :ddb:

Cheers  :beer:
