Halton Mill held a “Make Do & Mend” event at the Mill on Saturday, so whilst Elizabeth busily created a “Mad Hatter” dress for a forthcoming party, I set about building a stand for our lathe. We had plenty of wood left over from the builders, so the only costs were a few screws, electricity and plenty of effort. 
It is probably somewhat over-engineered, but this lathe is REALLY HEAVY so I didn’t want to take any chances!
The next question is “where to put it?”, hmm..
