Been looking at this forum for a while now, but never posted anything as I am new to mechanical engineering, and really have nothing innovative to contribute.
I have always been a DIY'er/handyman but only ever with hand tools which always left me dissatisfied with the results, so to get ready for retirement, I have bought a 10"x22" Weiss lathe and later a Weiss mill/drill, and for the last year or two have been teaching myself how to use them. "Pin It")
Hello from Oz,
Been looking at this forum for a while now, but never posted anything as I am new to mechanical engineering, and really have nothing innovative to contribute.
I have always been a DIY'er/handyman but only ever with hand tools which always left me dissatisfied with the results, so to get ready for retirement, I have bought a 10"x22" Weiss lathe and later a Weiss mill/drill, and for the last year or two have been teaching myself how to use them.
I also built a Gantry CNC machine (actually that came first, which whetted my appetite for engineering), I use LinuxCNC to drive it and I am rather pleased with it.
So along with this and other forums and youtube, I have been having a lot of frustrating fun.
Eric.
