ok boys and girls not bike but i know there are some gear heads in here that might like this

so well lathe is running and any time u have some thing like a lathe u need to keep all the bits that go with it some where..
and being the tight arse i am im not paying for shuit like that added to that im lazy so less work is soooo much better

end result is a fitters home made trolley that was a give away about 12 yrs ago and has spent its time in my olds horse stable with car parts in it but was free so it got the nod and with the help of some scrap,left over top from kicthen and a few hrs i have a home for all the chucks, steadys, tooling and measure etc as well as a work top .
