Need some pointers on making a versatile portable vice stand? Howard Jennings shares how he gets the best out of his for fixing and repairing.
There is also something for engineers at different levels with CNC: Marcus Bowman continues his series of articles aimed at beginners, while John Pace increases his own CNC machine capacity, converting a Warco GH1000 lathe.
Mark Noel uses lateral thinking and makes a lip salve lubricator for use while turning.
And we review the latest Neo for Iwata trigger airbrush and miniature compressor.
