That is the best and most in depth website I've ever seen, the workshop tab is superb!

It looks great, workshop tab is indeed fantastic.

You can see a couple of cheeky scoops in one picture!

I love the press it looks so DIY! Big ol' bucket for the weight on a long lever! Looks a great workshop . . .are the bats made by James himself? Or does he have helpers/apprentices?

Drill Press?

The bandsaw could, but I'm sure there was slight grooves in the back.

Lots do, but all others offer warranty, the trick of not offering one is it makes you think it must be drier, therefore bigger and better...
