How are you going to replace it with?

Yeah.

Yeah, you should get a shed, Dave.

You feel like a shed guy.

And what do you keep in there?

Like your lawnmower and stuff?

We don't need a lawnmower, but we've got... Because you eat the grass.

Oh, there was a really nice email, actually.

Maybe we could end on this about lathes, which really made me laugh.

I would love a garage.

I would kill for a garage.

Well, you should have thought that when you were choosing your house.

Yes.

This is from Gemma, and Gemma says, Hello, Ellis, John, and Dave.

Long-time listener, first-time emailer.

I'm emailing in regard to all the recent lathe chat, predominantly on behalf of my boyfriend, Ben, age 30, who uses his lathe on a weekly basis.

He uses it to solve any manner of problems from making a small metal thing to fix an issue in his car to making a small metal thing to fix an issue in his motorbike.

Yeah.

The thought of not being able to just make a small metal thing at home on an evening is nearly impossible to him.

And I'm so very grateful he has recently opted to store his lathe somewhere else short term in order for us to move in together as we struggle to find somewhere with a garage to accommodate his lathing urges.
