That POV turning is just the best, makes me feel like I'm the lucky one getting the lathe action.
So personal.
For a moment I thought it was my one whirlygig de-burrer that needed changing.
Lol thanks buddy you've just reminded me, I have to order some new inserts for mine
Looking great Ralfy. A question from my 10 year old daughter Jessica, will the tank need a balance pipe to empty both side and keep them equal because the tunnel is high it's something she has learned in physics. You could have knocked me down with a feather , I can't believe she listens at school !.
It should yes, not sure if he will go for it though tbh, she's obviously a bright girl, well spotted Jessica
Nice one Ralfy, I get the feeling you really enjoy lathe work :-)
I quite understand, of all the tools in my workshop, the lathe is the one I enjoy using the most, cracking bit of kit and it's very satisfying watching chips come off although I did have it spraying me with hot smouldering chips recently when I got a bit enthusiastic with the carbide and ran it a bit fast, good job I don't have much hair to catch fire!
Lol thanks buddy, yeah the lathe is a great place to stand and be creatively burnt
The downfall of old tanks is all the shit you can't see in the corners. I fill them with some old fixings and parts cleaner and strap them to a cement mixer, leave them to tumble for a couple of hours and they come out gleaming, or have fucking great holes in them... 🤣
Smooth looking little 650, interesting couple of episodes Ralphy. Damn shame Triumph did that once upon a time, I do think if they'd have marketed differently it'd have been received a bit better perhaps? Idk, se la vie my friend. Best wishes and thank you for sharing all this stuff Ralphy 🍺 cheers
