It's not obvious to see how this recent acquisition might become an obsession but then, you don't know me, I obsess easily 😉

In 1984 I took a job as a design engineer with an electrical switchgear company called Dorman Smith in Preston.

The Design manager then was Doug Eaves, a man we all liked and respected.

Doug died last year in his eighties and a mutual friend who was helping his wife to clear his workshop prior to a house move offered me his old lathe.

I find there's something special about taking on another person's tools. It makes me think of how they worked, the ideas for the projects that claimed their waking thoughts.

I already had several projects on but as I start the refurbishment of this useful tool it's quickly become my new obsession.

One thing's for sure, it won't be red when I've finished.

@gsuberland Where was all this beginner project-based stuff 10 years ago when I was trying to learn #machining?? mrpete222 was the only one teaching and everything else you had to pick up by watching people do things.

I've barely touched my #machinetools in the last few years. Maybe this channel will get me back out there.
