That's for sure. It shutdown in 2008. Congrats on the winning bid!

Shame to see that surface plate uncovered. I bet that used to be some of "my stuff" that got moved to Universal when the O-I glass plant was shut down. (I was the QA Manager at O-I for a number years ...)

I think you cursed me ... I did in fact break a 2-56 tap this morning! First one in years. (Probably should have replaced it a long time ago.) It must be the first version of the book. Copyright 2005; 4th printing.

That's a dickens of a way to find out that a long-time employer "down the street" is shutting down. I guess it was only a matter of time after shutting down "our" glass plant in Lavington.

Anyone want to "have a play" with an EDM to the Ben Fleming design? I built one a number of years ago. It has been used a couple/three times but is sat on a shelf since. Need to start moving on things I don't use anymore... I'd rather not ship it but will willing hold it until you can arrange...

Worx for me too! I even splashed out for a wall mounted dispenser with "commercial" sized bottle. A little goes a long way and it doesn't damage the skin. Together with the Lee Valley surgical brushes, it hasn't been foiled yet.

No pictures but wanted to join the fun anyway ... goodness knows where any old pictures got to. My first car was a '69 Camaro that I put a B-Modified stock car engine into. (Large valves, Holley 4 barrel, heavy clutch, etc., etc.) It sure would rev! "Everyone" was building V8s - had to be...

Nice printed accessories. Not going to guess about the height difference though 'cause it will still work fine. (If it was my shop, it would be sitting on swarf!) About an oil can that works ... the only one I've been extremely happy with is a Reilang. By one or more when young and your...

Thanks for sharing all your stories! I can't believe the number of folks "blind in one eye and can't see out the other" out there. At least now I'm not quite as concerned about a cataract developing in my only useful eye. Being a life long wearer of eye glasses, vision has always been precious...

Been away on our version of a camping trip (i.e. trailer in a provincial park) ... thanks for stepping in "jorogi" on the S-39 model identification. It is one of my favourites. "Yotabota" - I haven't decided if I'll steam the donkey engine (perhaps one day). I did set it up and test it for...
