Hello all

[Bourbon25]

Hi, I'm from the Midlands in the UK, My lathe is a Clarke CWL 1000, I've made a few things on it and I'm improving It as I go along, (homemade tailstock chuck etc) I am interested in Medieval re-enactment and have a fully equipped workshop with mostly woodworking tools but also an engineering lathe and a few welders. Hope to be able to contribute to the forum in some small way.

Welcome to the forum. Not sure what Castle it was but I went to a reenactment at one some years ago and it was very entertaining.

Welcome, I have made quite a few things for a Viking re-enactment group, currently waiting for one of them who has promised me an axe head to make a curved handle for.  I mostly do turning my workshop isn't big enough for a lot of flat work. I won't have metal work except maybe a bit of brass anywhere near my workshop (to messy)

I have a reputation as a ' Mr Fixit' and as such, That is why I have a wide variety of equipment. If I need a tool to do a job, Then I am in a position to make or modify something.

I do both metalwork and wood turning. It’s handy being able to make your own tools and jigs etc.
