on the second day of Christmas (i.e. today only) 15% off all project accessories at http://www.turners-retreat.co.uk/ and salt and pepper kits for less than 2 quid!! (although shipping is another fiver)
 
Gulp, not much time left and I'm off to Derbyshire on Monday. Will really try to get something done, but the list is long and time is short. If I don't have a Happy Christmas everyone and see you in next year's Challenge.
 
YO HO HO! :ho2 :deer

Finished mine today. I've been banned from the workshop 25th and 26th due to family being here and 'they are not interested in your shed' (some are, but I think we can sneek up there un-noticed), so got on with it today and all finished, new lathe by the weekend!!! going to Axi, Devon on 27th, can't wait.

P.S . how do you get a 'deal' out of Axminster in store? :wink:
