Greetings-- now I too am a member of FOG. With great advice here (special thanks to Oliver for putting up with all my questions) I pulled the trigger on my "Xmas presents" (TSC55; Rotex150; PCS18/4; Midi CTM, some rails and TSO GRS16PE)-- only problem is neither my 5 adult kids nor wife yet know...hah (but I suspect I am not the first 'gifting' myself tools...hah). Waiting for shipment and use my retirement learning from these great tools and FORUM. Many projects planned to keep my young!
I am an Yank (Vermont) who wondered across the pond 40 years ago....just goes to show, you never know where you will end up (now in London).
