I learned all this from my Dad when I was about 11. He ran his own business doing machining. I am pretty certain that he also has an abandoned Myford in his garage in Devon.

So has this thread turned into a rideout thread? TBH I'm trying to keep my mileage down..... But

Bibio with a lathe.

Now, the trickery that is going to get turned out if THAT happens. That's going to be worth watching.

Well people will keep trying to derail it with some nonsense about lathes, but yes. What's the route?

Sunday 1st of June.

Meet me in Largs at 10:30, up to the ferry at Gourock, over the water, get bit of turning done, then ???
Unfortunately thats over 200 mile return trip for me !!! But might be tempted to go a wee bit further.

Is this now an Ecosse Rideout ??? Sure my folks wouldnae mind you all calling in, you'd even get a brew, for sure.

Bit early isn't it Deano?

For stupid questions I mean, there's ALWAYS scope for ice cream at 10:30!

I thought was pretty much a given when the term 'Largs' is used.
