    Hi Jerry,

    I assume your tablet is an Intel-based one. Do you run other standard Windows software on it? If so, I can build a version for you to try out. Are you happy to be a guinea pig for me?

    Lathe steady rest

    Needed a steady rest for my Shopsmith lathe for some larger pieces I'm planning to turn. How great to be able to make the frame and aluminium supports entirely with the Shopbot.
