Greetings everyone ...
Just stumbled across this site a few moments ago while searching for some tooling.
Looked at the site and registered pretty well immediately.
I'm a hobby machine guy ... got my first lathe 40 years ago and have a little home-shop with a couple of mills a lathe, a little shaper, tons of tooling (you know that story ... ). Nice British lathe sitting in the garden shed waiting for my son, a machinist, to come pick it up.
Have ventured into some foundry work, too.
Looking forward to spending more time here.
Thanks for looking
Booter
