My First Post...Introduction.
« on: September 19, 2009, 03:57:43 PM »
Hi fellow members!!!
This is my first post-feeling rather nervous in making comments which may sound naive..I am a complete inexperienced newbie. I have all the basic machines to engage my time in delving with this fascinating art. I am reading all the necessary books and visiting sites like this one to enhance my knowledge. This site has definitely added and improved my precarious knowledge......thanks fellas. At least I know now to use the dti to tram the mill head and vice..a mystery that I found difficult to solve. :wave:
If I do have interesting techniques and data,I shall gladly post..
Thanks.
Peter

Welcome Peter, don't be nervous. I think most of us here knew very little when we joined, inc me......and still don't I might add.

Learn something new every day.....for me it adding a little more knowledge about motors... :ddb:

Join in, ask away but most of all enjoy yourself..... :thumbup:

Welcome to MadModder Peter. Now that you have the first post out of the way the rest will be easier. If you have any questions there is always someone around that will try to help you or give you an opinion.  :doh:
Enjoy your stay Peter and post up a few pictures of your shop when you get a chance as this forum loves pictures. :worthless:

Hi Peter,

Welcome to the collective.  :borg:

Don't be nervous, we all had to start somewhere. The guys on here are all willing to help. Join in the conversations and don't worry about asking dumb questions. No such thing. You may get a few dumb answers(  :D ), but we'll keep you going in a positive direction.

Regards,
Bernd

Hi Peter!

I seemed to have missed this one. Welcome to the collective :borg:

Nervous? nah you shouldn't be. We are all usually quite tame. Sometimes we have an off moment... but we live with it. Ask away, we will try to help!
