There's a new update (#1 - 319) of David Frith's version of the MEW Index (largely based on Barry Chamberlain's) Many thanks to both of them. drive.google.com/drive/folde… The pdf contains two lists, one sorted by issue number and the other sorted by author/contributor.

A recent article from Model Engineers' Workshop magazine has been added to the Model Engineer Forum. In it, Andy Johnston gives a useful guide to servicing a Burnerd 'Grip-Tru' chuck. model-engineer.co.uk/news/ar… #modelengineer #MEW #lathe #Engineering #makers
