Lowmex 2018

The fifth LowestoftModel Engineering Exhibition (Lowmex) took place in October; organised by a sub-committee of the Halesworth and District Model Engineering Society (H.D.M.E.S.). Within the five years, the event has become the biggest exhibition of its kind in East Anglia.

It had all the things that you would expect to find at a model engineering exhibition (and more) and there were several things that would be of interest to workshop enthusiasts.

Andy Lockwood brought a collection of workshop items to display, including a miniature turret turning attachment, which is used by replacing the compound slide on the lathe, photo 1.
