Is that the wreck that was on ebay recently?
If so you've taken on an 'interesting' job. However, Col has one as you know so he'll be able to tell you what's what.
Nice little Lathe. Of course you'll need several more for best results
Violins and Lathes sounds like a fascinating combination. I don't know anything about Violins except that they make dreadful noises in the wrong hands. Mind you, a mate of mine plays the Bagpipes and his lad is a Drummer. Fortunately the neighbours are pretty tollerant.
