I have a 5" Boxford AUD, the fixed steady it came with is for a 4 1/2"
lathe.
Does such a thing exist as a 1/2" thick pad that has male and female 'Vee's
to fit the bedways so that it can be used to raise the centreline?

Amongst my collection I have a 7/16th Left Hand Twist drill.
What would this have ever been used for. First that I have ever seen.

Anyone have a good online source for free cutting mild steel (in the
UK)?
I'm also interested in general in recommendations on where to get
stock.  I normally end up on eBay or buying from RS, but does anyone

Can anyone tell me if S2T toolholders fit an S2 toolpost?
Rotagrip's catalogue shows both sizes of toolholders as being 98.5mm
long but the S2T post is 106.5 square compared with 98.5 for the S2.
Tony Griffiths' web page doesn't show the length of the toolholders.

Looking at getting a full set of cams for a Brierley ZB25 32 series
drill grinder and later making some spares.
I'm looking for the number 12 and 14 cams and any odd number cams  for
LH tooling.

took over a kit collection recently. After viewing all the kits, I'm
auctioning off all double kits. Some are rare items like an AMT EC-135C
or a VEB (ex East German) SU-7. Have a look at:

I recently bought a cheap (small) lathe)
it's only about 3x12, and possibly a zyto (althoough unbadged)
At the moment, it's got two drill chucks on it - a "foreign" make
hand-tightened chuck of about 1/4" capacity mounted on the tailstock,

I've been tempted by the low price if this kit and would like to know
if someone has seen the sprues... is it Hasegawa, as Revell's B, or is
it the old Monogram mold?
Thanks in advance,

I have just got a second  Tamiya 1/25 T-34/85 tank I'd like to convert
to a T-34/76 version.  
Using the Tamiya 1/35 T-34/76 version with a Commander's cupola and a
circular hatch as the model to copy I noticed that the T-34/85 turret

What's the best way to eradicate the seam running down the top of the
fuselage (on any aircraft model)? (I can live with a crappy underside!)
Some models are such a good fit that the seam just needs a gentle rub
over, and suitable painting, and it disappears (good enough for my ...

It's been many, many years since I've put together a kit, so I thought
I'd canvas the group for suggestions. My interests in the past have
been 1\48 or better, ww2 aircraft, especially twin engine. I'd prefer
to start out with a relatively easy build and then work up from

What is going on. I look in to get some information on models and
every other message is about how I can get high priced designer shoes
or something.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Needed to case harden some parts today - first time in a while. Dug
out my tub of  'Kasenite substitute' Dagarnite which I bought over a
year ago at one of the shows - I think from Chronos but maybe not.
Now with genuine Kasenite you can heat the part to cherry red, dip it
