I came across this site while I was starting to gather what I needed to build a lathe and mill. I have been an Auto Mechanic for over 35 years. I owned a repair shop for 25 years. My health forced me to retire. I enjoy so many of the tools I have seen

Hi Mike - welcome to HomemadeTools.net :welcome:

Sounds like you have a lot of experience that will be helpful around here. So how are the lathe and mill coming along?

Hi Mike,

Welcome - glad to have you here! :welcome:

Let's see those new machine tools! Did you do your own casting, too?

When you're ready to share some of your own homemade tools, we'd love to see them. Please post them directly in the Homemade Tools subforum. We'll add each one to the database, as well as to your builder page on the site.

Non-tool items should be shared in the Not a Tool, but Homemade subforum.

Hi Mike, welcome to the forums! As a decades-long mechanic, I'd be interested see your homemade tools and tool mods that you used in your trade.
