Hey,
Looks like a great site. I'm into just about anything to do with metal and machining....even play with a bit of casting.
I'm located in New South Wales, Australia
I'm currently setting my new workshop up and continuing work on the restoration of my 1937 Nuttal lathe ( amongst the never-ending list of new jobs that take my interest...)
Cheers,
Kev.:cool:

Hi Kev - welcome to HomemadeTools.net :welcome:
How is the lathe restoration going so far? We love vintage machines. :)

Hi Jon,
Thanks, happy to be here.
The lathe resto is coming along slowly (read ...very slowly). I have recently moved which has slowed every 'play' thing down somewhat. It is pulled apart at the moment and I am just about to spray some paint around on the main body/apron/covers so I can then start putting it back together. I have a DC conversion ready to go on so I'll have variable speed control (and a RPM counter!)....bit special for an 80 year old lathe ;)
Cheers,
Kev.
