A strip in the bedroom

[Theclockworks]

Thought that would get your attention,having a spring clean the other day in workshop/bedroom (which is quite convenient at 2 pm when you can't sleep you can make a few chips)I found the brass jib strips that arrived from Ark Euro Trade 6 months ago ,so decided it was time I fitted them twenty minutes later it was like having a new lathe,why didn I do earlier,I can now take bigger cuts with a better finish without the top slide doing a nose dive and the big bonus is parting off without holding my breath waiting for the Big Bang or the motor stalling. The lathe is a Amadeal CJ18. The usual disclosure I have no monetary interest in either company,but I have to say both give excellent service at a competitive pricing
P.S the image shows before and after the face cut with the steel strip ,the outer cut with the brass strip the difference is quite obvious.
