I like the kick stand feature. Can't understand why most bicycles no longer come with them.

Kickstands are not aero.

Today I acquired a task Ive not been looking forward to.

Get my lathe on a pallet and boxed up.

Wish me luck.

Good luck, hopefully easier than picking it up in two SUV's and an engine hoist!

Talk to it for a hour. It'll have itself boxed up & shipped off by the time you get home.

48mm off the deck now.
Swap the 12mm MDF for 2x2 and do it twice more.

Then I can shunt it onto the pallet

Wish my kids would leave me in peace

Youngest is screaming for toys that were bagged up to go a year ago. I moved them out of the corner

The incremental lift & pack method works well, doesn't it.

Would work better if I had a little more room. Gotta go angles with the bar or it hits the walls/filing cabinet.
All good fun. 96mm and counting

But worth it , should be enough gear to give all the tracks here a dusting

@Seadog
Don't like the colour, can we have it in grey?

 

[eLuSiVeMiTe]

Ready for the pallet

 

[eLuSiVeMiTe]

And breathe

Now to position and bolt down

 

[MattF]

I hope you're going to give that tray a wipe before you box it up?

If I remember. Bite of lunch then to the lockup for timber.
Gonna be a puzzle fitting all the accessories in.
Thankfully it bucks the trend and is very bottom heavy. Especially once all the bits have been popped in
Il brace the lathe to the box

Is it going to one of our forum brethren?

So bought on saturday a cheap 4 jaw 125mm chuck off amazon,
Didnt have high Hopes for the £17.

Recieved today. Yes it's a little rough and ready around the edges but will be ideal for my plans for the welding rotator.
