I like the wooden handles on the chuck key.
I'm curious as to why he rubs 'swarfe' on after sanding - is it to remove the dust?

I've watched YouTube and have had AdBlock for years without a problem.You Tube want to start charging to watch 'ad-free'. Occasionally watching on Firefox, I get a message:- "Ad blockers are not allowed on YT" - but Google seems OK.

Ta, muchly, Phil.To burnish the wood.
Rubbing shavings on a finished piece is burnishing - the friction resulting from the contact of the shavings with the rotating wood produces a smooth polished surface (need to be careful as the shavings can get rather warm !) ...I like the wooden handles on the chuck key.

Same as traffic lights failing. I read a serious report a few years back where accidents fell sharply when lights were out as drivers were forced to think for themselves (Note.... NOT all BMW drivers are the same!)It's always tricky making any statements about safety and in these days of compulsory outrage its often better to keep mute on all sorts of issues. In the main however most tools and machines are safer now than they used to be due to guards and mechanical safety features. That said we seem to have let go of an older approach to safety by expecting that all risk has been manufactured out. That older system was about knowing what you were doing so in effect using the device in a safe way. The 2 caddy makers look like they do know what they are doing and I dare say they think its safe for them to operate. Be a different matter if they employed someone else who has no say in the matter.

I didn't say anyone is a problem ... Not all drivers of any make are the same.... Please don't jump to the wrong conclusionI thought it used to be Volvo drivers that were the problem.
In my area at a particular roundabou with traffic lights lots of drivers ignore the red light if the oncoming side havnt started to move !!!Same as traffic lights failing.

Point taken. I will quit the light hearted banter.I didn't say anyone is a problem ... Not all drivers of any make are the same.... Please don't jump to the wrong conclusion
At least until you improve!Point taken. I will quit the light hearted banter.
I believe what you’re seeing is the forward and reverse mechanism.What you don't see with the lathe is the "variable speed" drive which works by slipping the belt with a foot operated lever to give different speeds.
