Hi all, My brother pointed me to this site for useful ideas. I've built a couple of CNC routers but I wanted to get into some heavier material and learn better techniques working manually. I was lucky to pick up a South Bend Model A lathe and a Rockwell knee mill the last 6 months so I've got a lotta learning to do. There are a lot of amazing and useful tools and ideas on this site. Currently my brother and I have a ball cutter contest going on - first to make a working one wins.
