Hidy Ho good nieghbor
« on: July 16, 2009, 07:40:10 PM »
Hello, I'm Todd. I found this place like many others, a you tube video. I have an Atlas 618 and an Enco 9X20. The 618 is being fixed up for service again. I am new to this and learning something new every day.

Hi Todd

Welcome to the collective :borg:

Worry not about being new... The learning process will follow you until the end. Please speak up, ask questions and make suggestions. So, what are you into?

Glad you joined.  :ddb:

So what are the projects lined up that your going to do, or maybe you've got some info you'd like to share. We're all ears and eyes.

Oh ya, the eyes part. We like lots of pictures of all and any project you do.

Thanks,
I am into hot rods and would like to use the lathe to make some art-deco looking knobs for my 1949 chevy pickup. Also want to make punches, drifts, hammers and other useful tools for myself and to give as gifts.
