=================================================================

Here's a a cool metal sculpture I got at the 
Brau 2000 fair in Nüremberg. It's the only lathe
that I am allowed too keep in the living room.

The price was DM 130, but as it was the last day
at the fair I didn't have enough cash at hand.
I felt desperate. I really NEEDED this sculpture.

Obviously, there must have been something with
the expression of my face when I saw the sculpture,
that made artist Frank Fischer sympathise with me. 
He actually gave me the sculpture along with his 
bank account number. He didn't even ask for any ID.

Now that's what I call a nice guy. (He has received
his money by now, I hope).

My floor boards are 4" wide, which will give you
an impression of the size.

The pictures does not sreveal the level of 
details, unfortunately. The tailstock slides,
allowing me to insert a small workpiece in the chuck.

Have a look, lots of cool stuff.

(I have no relations whatsoever to his business - 
but this guy really deserves his URL mentioned at RCM).
