Greetings from Strathfieldsaye

Hi folks,

Before my father died last year he gave me his Shopsmith wood working multi-function machine. The heart of this is the lathe, and after a bit of resorative work it is up and running smoothly.

When I'm not woodturning I'm an IT consultant providing software design and development services as well as training in software development around Australia.

I'd rather be woodturning!

Cheers

Graeme

I'm with you on that one. Welcome to the forum. Love to have a look at some pics of the Shopsmith as well.
