I have learnt the first rule of woodturning.
The internal diameter should never exceed the external width.
Nor the internal depth, the external height.
Does that make me an expert now ?

I think Graham's lost the plot.

Knowing Graham it is likely to be a play on words - Sorby = Sorbet (maybe?)

Sorby was a brilliant guess, wish I had thought of it. I just meant he was a jammy sod
