    Default The Lorch is coming home

    I'm just in the process of packing to leave Austria and heading home again. So yesterday I got the job of helping my son Matthew build a box for his Lorch, So it can be shipped home later this year. First chance I've had to really give it the once over. It's typically German/Swiss quality watchmakers lathe, full set of collet chucks and a fair smattering of the accessories.

    The tiny multifix toolholder is a real gem. We bolted the baseplate to the base and built the box around it, before it gets shipped it will be filled with foam, and there are cross braces not yet installed in that picture.
