Andrew, You do realise that if I attend the meeting and it's near you I will have to pass at least
7 tool stores and auction sits to attend.I am seeking treatment, one method I'm working on is to drive everywhere in Gert's car instead of the 3.5 tonne truck as it can't carry as much. Although this is a learning curve as I have found that a Peugeot 406 estate can manage to hold just over 1/2 a ton.

Not anywhere near, but I did bring a Gardner 4LK up from Worcestershire in a Saab 99 hatchback.

I did say it was a learning curve............

I put 40 in an escort estate, but I had to take 10 out because it was so back heavy it wouldn't steer - the front wheels were barely touching the ground.
I am sitting here trying to sort out a plan of attack on a sheet of plywood[core box]. However I got distracted and seemed to have done a sketch of the toolpost..
Hi Tim
Did you retain the main gearbox or bypass it to drive the spindle direct with your inverter drive motor?

Kept the gearbox, never considered not doing so. I still use the back gears for low speeds and do change gears from time to time depending on the job. It's more a case of selecting a 'highish' or 'lowish' gear than any particular gear, though.
Cheers
Tim
