    Intro

    I got the message that I needed to post an intro so here it is. I have a small machine/mechanical repair shop in the MD/VA/WV area. I have seen some very interesting ideas on this page. Thank you to all who have shared their knowledge and experience with these builds.
    Thanks!

    Ken, currently working on sending this winter weather down to you in FL!! 40 inches of snow from the storm. Actually we have a small break right now so the tail stock on the 15" lathe is going to be rebuilt. It is a 1955 LeBlond so it is time to give it some love.

    Ha! Thanks, I'll pass. I've shoveled all the snow I ever intend to shovel. You do have my sympathies, though.

    Post a few pics of the lathe restoration when you have a chance - lots of us would enjoy following along…

    Thanks for joining in Todd. Welcome to HomemadeTools.net

    You know if it snows more than 1/2 inch in Florida, they have to call in the National Guard!

    Do you see any ideas here that you might add to your build list?
