[PSUBS-MAILIST] Lathe Before\After

[James Frankland via Personal_Submersibles]

oh dear.  I was so pleased with how it turned out.

I suppose I will just have to keep wiping\cleaning until it stops.

and yes....cars here disintegrate.  Bought a 1974 VW Beetle a while
ago.  35 years in the UK and it was still good.  1 year in
Guernsey.......disintegrated.... :(
