Thank you... I came 3rd in the end which was highly commended but I was highly recommended by Rolls Royce and a few other big companies. Also I have a 2 page spread in the DATA magazine about my project, not bad for a 6th form student with a small workshop and a 50 year old Myford . But this will be very useful for the future as I plan to become a precision engineer in the long term

Yes there are many parts that are far from perfect that I want to change but just need a bit of time and money, then I should have a far better machine. I am just doing a few small jobs at the moment to try and raise some more funds
