    The best compliment I can pay your work is to say "you sir, are a true craftsman."
    A very nice piece of work if ultimately based on flawed original design...but still a terrific job

    Thanks everyone for your words of encouragement. I can assure you I am no craftsman, just an academic who hadn't touched a lathe until he retired a few years ago, and lucky to have plenty of time and patience to compensate for his machining ignorance.
    Now for a long break, and then to start another build, whateve that might be. Perhaps something with a bit more oomph this time!
