Good morning all.
I'm Bob from London. I've had my lathe (Warco WM180) for around 4 years, but added a mill (Warco WM16b) in April. Due to the size of my workshop (very small) I didn't actually get to use it until July as I had to have a new shed base laid and new shed installed to take the overflow junk from the workshop.
Since then I've been learning how to use it, fitted a DRO and have made some of the staple first parts (vice stop, fly cutter, etc) and some metal dice. I'm currently working on the Hemingway knurling tool but I think I'm ready to try and build an engine.
I'm going to start small and try to build the Elmers Standby #19 using Journeymans excellent metric plans.
Cheers,
B
