You know, I think the perfect response to the OP is simply this; "What changed your perception of this forum?"

[RB211]

It's simple, people are simply not playing in their workshops. Covid, job losses, etc. Money is required to participate, I just don't think most people...

It aint going to be free this time ...

[RB211]

No. My office. I need to move my office stuff into the garage, if it's something the inlaws even want to do. I've not been happy ever since I lost floor...

[RB211]

I've come to the conclusion that floor space is king. No good having machines if you're not happy with the limited space.
I'm going to get rid of...

When ever you feel like it.

I recognize that motor from my childhood. My dad was a dentist and he had that in his lab, along with the rest of it, with pulleys and drive belt going...
