Great WIP Dominik, thanks for taking the trouble to post it. That's going to be - already IS! - quite a beastie!

BTW, I really like the green "speckle" finish. Is it Hammerite (don't even know if it's available in Poland, sorry). And how did you apply it - spray, brush, or aerosol rattle cans?
 
OK, thanks Dominik. From your link I see that Hammerite is indeed available in Poland. Personally, I quite like the stuff, though IMO, the fairly recent change of formula has not improved it (from the application viewpoint) but once hardened off, it's still pretty good.

woohoo a tombola! Whats the prize and where do we get tickets
 
Looks like an old fashioned british prize raffle machine. Was making fun of a very british tradition of prize draws by clubs etc to raise funds by giving members the chance to win usually useless gadgets that end up in the cuboard under the sink lol
 
Dominik an excellent technique and a superb finish quality to the pieces.




Dominik doskonała technika i rewelacyjna jakość wykończenia kawałków.
 
Which chuck? On the lathe is 3jaws 200mm on the table Nova Titan3.

It will be mount on 3jaws chuck and part of spindle i will make adapter.

Lathe have power feed, i add small engine and gear because original was too fast for turning.
