I also want a lathe...
I got very drunk at my partners Christmas party about 15 years ago and very nearly bought a lathe. I think the only thing that stopped me was not being able to buy one online there and then. If it happened today I expect I'd have bought one. Still don't really know what I'd do with it.

Our garage project is back on track, the builder who we thought had totally forgotten about us is back! We had already asked another guy to take a look but he got too busy for a piddly little garage job, we had just started ringing other tradesmen when #1 guy got back in touch...
He's thanked us for our patience and is gonna reduce the cost of the job as a thank you... I'll believe that when I see it but very happy to finally (hopefully!) have this happening... He's the best guy in the area, an engineer by trade, an excellent draughtsman and produces very high quality work...
Can't wait to have a little workshop, pillar drill here I come! I also want a lathe... Just because I can... Then we get him to build a verandah onto the front of the house... New bathroom also going in during the next twelve months, busy (expensive) year!
