    Hi Stephen - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

    Lots of retired folks here, so I'm sure you'll fit right in

    Post some pics of the lathe restoration if you have them; I'm sure people would like to take a look!

    Hi Stephen,

    Welcome - glad to have you here!

    Yes, please do post those lathe restoration photos. What's the first thing you're going to turn with it once it's done?
