In another post the view from my workshop was admired by a few folks. As we've had the windows replaced recently I thought I'd take a better picture of the view while the glass is still clean ... :big:

Hi Vic,

Ya know, I hate to say it, but you may want to put a back splash on that lathe, to keep the errant object from being flung out of the chuck and through that beautiful window.....in the winter....during a blizzard.... ;D

You're right about that Dave, the old window had a "coating" of dried on suds in a nice vertical pattern in line with the chuck ;D

I'm thinking a polycarbonate shield of some sort when I get one of those "round tuits" :big:

You should be able to get a sheet of poly carb at the local big box home improvement store . At least it is available here in the states at the home dpots lawes and the better local hardware stores.

Yes I have similar stripes on my wall :big:

My window is up and to the left of the headstock...and no where near as pretty as yours....

Vic,

That's oh so much nicer than the inside of a battered shipping container. :D My only consolation is I can't break the window. ::)

Best Regards
Bob
