Just joined this forum and here are some picts of my work shop.  The room is in my basement and was an extra bed room that we never used to I removed the carpet and started buying tools.  Please ignore the paint, I never took the time to repaint it after taking over the room!


I race RC boats and bought the machines to make parts for them and got bit by the metal working bug.  I have been enjoying it so much that I started taking classes at the tech and hope to work at a machine shop in the future.

I picked up the D&M mill off E-bay and retrofitted it to work with Mach 3.  The computer is located in the closet.  The mill works good, but I need to learn more on how to program it.  Right now I do every thing by writing G code and I really need to learn how to use CAD.

The X2 mill has an up graded power supply and a belt drive kit.  The new power supply puts out more torque and RPM from the stock motor.  I'm currently working on a power feed for the X axis and hope to have it done soon.  My arm is getting sick of hand cranking.

Also a picture of my tool rack for the lathe.
