Boxs are made from card and stapled together and I put a square of card on the top with a rubber band around to hold it on, it is good for carting the stuff around

I like to go to a fair first and check out what is being sold and of coarse the price of having a stall, I try and work on 10% cost for a site so at $20 I would to take at least $200, but in NZ we pay as much as $135 so that is out of my price range

I turned the wheels on the lathe, just a long dowel for 10 wheels and cut them on the band saw then put them in a 25mm chuck and shaped the out side of the wheel.
I took it up to Lachlan on the WE and he played with it for a while but was a bit grumpy a bit of a cold I think

The best thing about the saw is when you have an oopsy it does not get up and bite you like the lathe I had a big piece come off one time and hit me in the kisser, stunned but not out I picked it up off the floor and put it back on the lathe and showed it who was the boss, didn't let on my nose hurt like hell.
I make sure everything is tight before I start up now.
SO GB don't feel too bad

Great idea for saw stand, doubles as a work bench when you are not sawing and a space saver
