Yeah don't worry Darren, I picked up on that.
I'm a bit blown away by Ken's generous offer, being such a newbie around here.
BTW, haven't heard much about your behemoth lathe for a while...

I've aggravated an old injury, so have been limited on what I can do. I did manage to pull the wire from the motor today and run new wire but ran out of time to finish it off.

The offer is valid, and real, Pete.
I would enjoy carving away a pile of steel or cast iron, whichever you'd prefer. Or, get someone there to make a steel weldment box that just needs some finishing.
