| John,thank you for your first posting,it tells me one thing and that is your modelling heart is in the right place, with your most kind offer to assist others with small lathework,you also highlight the need to encourage the youngsters of today,how very true this is,never before have the youth of this land had so many distractions,however on the other hand never before has so much been available in terms of kits,projects and materials.
It is people like yourself who having enjoyed being an hobbyist for so long is now more than prepared to offer something back and to assist others less fortunate in skills.
I just love the idea of your retirement stash,what a great idea,now you can relax and enjoy life at a much slower pace and above all enjoy your hobbies,so more power to you and your trusty lathe and I hope that you will continue to wield metal,manipulate the timber and turn lots of little gizmos in the future ! I wish you well and just know that you will enjoy yourself here amongst a wide variety of other model builders.
