Hi,
Thanks Joe.
Great Colin; I've now got Gimp and it works a bit differently to what I was used to but I think I've cracked sizing pictures again so here's the first; not the best but with a bit of practice I should get better; at least I know how to play around with Gimp. Thanks for your help Colin.
Thanks Peter; my camera usually sits on my desk where it's warm and dry; perhaps a big hammer might help?
Here's a picture of the Lorch lathe bed after lots and lots of work on it; today I soaked it with Gunk then I took a deep breath and carried it onto our driveway where I power washed it. This of course caused immediate rusting so it was blown with the airline and gone over with the heat gun to dry it then the rust was quickly removed using UPOL pads. It's just about ready at last for its new paint?
Kind regards, Col.
