    Thank you bro!

    She so UGLY the bag i put over it up and ran away, leaving me a note stating it was cruel and unusual punishment.
    I had to agree!

    She's going to get upgraded slowly.
    Then i'm going to refine a few parts, re cost and send a kit version to my friend in Scotland.

    If that goes together and works out the box then i'll think about offering to others.
    But they won't be ugly things like this is now.

    Shes that ugly due to she costing £100

    Surely that spindle and mount alone cost more than £100? You've not convinced me to buy one just yet, but you have it moving which is more than I can say for mine which has not been cheap or easy!!

    True dat! all made from scrap wood, it's flat and cuts straight.
