Bill goes on to talk of special modifications for the unit he ordered.
"....as a pukka O.T wallah I'm entitled to be a bit more fussy - just as a
Jaguar man wouldn't really enjoy a Ford Siesta for long.

"Dear John,
It was not only a great pleasure to meet you at Shepton Mallet, (UK) it was
exciting as I began to realise your idea appeared to be a break-through in
introducing O.T to plain turners in a way they could afford.
But it was only when I saw the video that it fell into place, truly.
With my Holtzapffel outfit I have many refinements that make any lesser
machines somewhat wanting in a few respects.
But from the basics that you provide, many improvements and modifications
that will bring it into line are fairly easily accomplished by even a
non-engineer like me....."
But this is dealing with the icing on the cake.
The main thing is - you have made the cake and I KNOW many thousands
of ordinary turners are going to take that step of delving into the
exciting world of O.T that can transform their work and their interests for
the rest of their lives...."
