    Eh? No, it was with reference to the boy in the article posted by Lawrence. A boy using his football boots money to pay for some random blokes groceries at the checkout? Something not right there - I'm fine with folk having a kind and thoughtful nature, but this kid appears to have had a brain fart.

    Got him (and his mum) their 15 minutes of fame though.

    Might be unusual, but does it warrant a 'puke' smiley?

    Dug my little Unimat lathe out from its hiding place yesterday. Now all I have to do is remember how to use it, I think it's all there .

    Article read like a sugary jam doughnut bathed in syrup then dropped onto a turd left by a beagle puppy with digestive problems. Well you did ask.

    The usual, within its size limits. It's a Unimat 4. I need to make a base board and belt guard.
    Never used this one, it's still covered in the original wax/grease. I had a bigger Myford in use years ago, had a couple of tiny Adepts too, they were nice.

    Might be the last new Unimat 4 sold actually, was supplied without motor, but I have a few to choose from.
