Oops

I managed to go out with a camera which was devoid of memory card.
So I apologize for having to use another shot of the piece currently on the lathe.
The extra shot shows how ropy the hold by the chuck is.

It was an inter-cub photographic competition with Mid Lothian in the evening.
They are a great and friendly bunch - even after getting beaten.
The spread they put on  is second to none and enough to sustain a small army for a couple of days.
An added plus for me was winning the raffle so I came home with a high capacity, high quality flash drive.
