Hello from Suffolk UK
« on: January 05, 2025, 10:39:00 PM »
Hello all

I have worked in engineering for the past 30 years, starting with an aircraft electronics  background but now work as a maintenance engineer on big cranes and lifting machines.

I’ve always dabbled on machines and own a little myford lathe, a 1937 south bend lathe and a Tom senior mill along with various drilling/cutting/grinding machines.

I am yet to make any models having used my machines to mainly fix things but am considering making a starter machine, I’m not sure what yet.

Anyway, just thought I’d say hello and I look forward to chatting over the years
