looks good

After long weeks of travel I am back at home and got few hours for myself!
Quickly started my new lathe and turned few bits and pieces for Zenit.
I still have to learn a lot in terms of how to use the lathe properly, but my first searchlight after 3-4 or four attempts turned out quite nice.

I used brass, piece of aluminium and plexi:

I keep on building bits and pieces.
I have etched parts for ladders and life rings holders and started to turn elements of anchor winch... and weekend has passed into past.

And today I have soldered the ladders.
And filed them nicely.
Four small ladders but they took me whole evening:

Hello Jerzy,great work!Keeping these small parts on the ladders straight when soldering must be quite the task How are you making out with your vacume container?Did you get it up and running?Thanks Walter

I soldered them inside a wooden jig holding the sides together. Not a big deal, and I already have some experience with soldering.
The vacuum pump, still not touched. Next months should more productive I hope
