The Blue dog is enjoying the sun, what little there is in our garden.
The Wolf is about to sneeze after having drunk some water.

They look a bit miffed to me, probably a tad cold for them.

He sure is and thank you dodgyrog:)
Same to you.
However...he went straight in to the neighbours so not sure when I will be seeing him and the food is done. Typical.
Something about an engine...
Boys toys...LOL

Engine? Nooo... I am now the proud new owner of a Fobco Star pillar drill which I *need* for a project

Is that for metal as well as timber?
Got a bog standard NuTool...does for most things, including chiseling wood joints...done some really tight mortice and tenons a few years back.
Project?

It is an engineering piece although it will work for wood as well, this one has had the bearings replaced and is silky smooth so I am thinking of popping a compound table (X, Y axis) on and using it as a mill for lightweight jobs. It has 4 speeds and is certainly robust enough for what I have in mind.
