Hello everyone,
I am excited to join this group and eager to learn! I have enjoyed metal work as a hobby for over 20 years, mostly welding and basic fabrication. In 2020 I thought it would be fun to give machining a go. What a can of worms that has turned out to be! I picked up a used 3hp Modern knee mill and an old South Bend 10k lathe (in amazing condition for its age!). I also picked up a little 7” Delta/Milwaukee shaper. It has been fun learning about these tools, how to use them safely and it has been awesome to expand my options when building stuff. I have had a blast with the machining, but am very much still a novice and look forward to learning from this crowd!
