Hello everyone,

Just stumbled across this forum and you all seem like a good group of guys/gals. I am a Materials Technician in the army and recently posted to the Gatineau area.

We are mostly known as a welding trade but I have my advanced machinist course (should be called basic machinist but I didn't name the course) and almost a year working full time at one of our R&D machine shops.

I have my own welding equipment but I've yet to get myself set up for machining. Hopefully that will change soon. Looking to get a lathe in the 10x22 size range for now and we will see where I go from there.
