Old member with lots of sidetracks so never before posted, apparently...
Like the idea of making my own tools, have been building a workshop to let me do that so I can make other things I like & want. Serious sufferer of Tool Envy Syndrome, aka TES. Coming up on two years in a precision manual machining class as a part-timer while building my tool collection. Finally have some machines that will let me make better and more complex tools, and at least some of the knowledge of how to go about that. Have some machine tools in various states of disrepair, slowly getting better. Live in the OKC metro area, retired from the USAF about 19 years ago, and hang out on a lot of Yahoo groups. Right at the moment rust removal and organization of the piles of stuff are my top priorities. Wish me luck!
