Not quite a disaster  ;D  Some ca glue and an hour gave me some sort of result. Of course it lost about an inch.

Hi Mike

Good to meet you at Yandles. Oops, it happens and if you're not pushing yourself you won't break stuff and you won't progress, that is what I tell myself. ;D keep pushing and hope to catch up again in the future.

Hi Mark-your sharpening tips at yandles seem to be improving my use of the tool-or is it just the result of time spent using it or a combination of both ?

Mike.

We've all had our Ooop's moments, they can be annoying but each one of them is a learning moment as well. Nice recovery.
