Hi from south wales
« on: August 08, 2019, 04:22:04 AM »
Hi all

Pete from south wales, very old not much hair to speak of.
I have a electronics design company (just me mainly and some part time people for windows software and mechanical design).
The usual stuff analogue digital / embedded controllers . Emc etc but to a very very high level.. When I say high I mean stupid levels of performance !.

I'm lucky to have a very well equipped lab and get to do things I love for less than minimum wage !

On the mechanical side I have a Thiel manual mill and a smart and brown lathe plus A Denford quattro cnc milling machine with heidenhain controller.

LOL Hi Pete from another engineer doing what he loves on same pay scale as yourself.  I mess about machining plastics and 3D printing mostly.  Outside of that, I dabble in whatever takes my fancy.  Look forward to seeing some of what you get upto.
Honour your mentors, and pay it forward.

Hi Graeme, glad to see that you've 'landed'

Would you like to put a bit in the introductions bit of the forum to tell the members about your back ground. I know your fabrications skills and ability to re-skin a barge but the rest don't  :clap:
