I got a chipping extractor i was going to buy anyway, and just saved £155. Bloody bargain 😀

some good bargains there! Was debating the scroll saw, even though I have absolutely no use for it. Fortunately it's gone now 😃
Those lathes are cheap. Unfortunately mine has stood unused after I learned the basics. I loved woodturning, but after making a few bowls I just don't need any more round things in my home/workshop.
I was also surprised at the cost of wood blanks. I think the only way to do it cost effectively is to always be on the lookout for free/cheap sources of wood.
Nice one! Bench grinder and facing tool on the way.
AlexSimon - I was looking at the lathes too but also couldn't justify the cost given what I have just spent on a planer thicknesser and a bandsaw. I might be able to clear out some space in your shed by buying your disused lathe for a nominal amount. Not sure how close to Southampton you are for delivery but a trip to the New Forest in your campervan would be lovely at this time of year...
