Hello Philip,

Thanks so much for your encouraging response. I will not connect it to power, I'm happy with a treadle design for the time-being. I fully realise that the quality of the chisels and other tools I might use to make turning tools needs to be quite high to tolerate the stresses of the work. May I be so bold as to ask for a few photos of the tools that you have made?

Thanks again,
David.
