Norm - no, just analogically saying. But I would love the challenge someday. That kind of project just doesn�t quite fit in with the present young growing family circumstances.
MF - thank you :) I do actually have another machine which I have some more �classic� restoration plans for down the line. I already know what�s going to happen with that when it�s complete though - I will refuse to use it!
Anyhow, I don�t wish to take BB�s thread too much further off track. Happy to discuss more privately or elsewhere appropriate.
