Thanks guys. Right now I have nothing going on. In the past Ive made a few small steam engines, copied from Mr. Pete plans. Down here in Southeast Texas machine tools are hard to find, a few years back I got my hands on a J type Bridgeport, best machine in the shop. The first lathe that I found was a 12 inch Atlas, then got a old Enco, both do ok. Im not a machnist that for sure but if I have a print or the broken part most times I can make it.
