Hi,
Been lurking around a couple of weeks reading everything thats gone before so thought I may as well say Hi and Thanks for all the useful info!

Im a bit of a tinkerer, cant leave anything alone and throught the years have built loads of stuff using rudimentary tools and the like. Figured I'm old and ugly enough to buy a proper lathe and mill when they came up for sale a few months back to make some gun parts and maybe some engines so now I have a Warco BH600G and a JAFO FYC-25 Mill. This is a beast of a mill, all 2 ton of it running 6hp of single phase with all axis powered. The mill wont actually fit in the house I'm in at the moment, so need to find a big garage when I move.

So far Ive turned a few barrels for my own air guns, including converting my S&W 686 CO2 pistol from .177 caliber to .22 caliber. Also built up a milling slide on my lathe until I have space for the Mill...

So basically, thanks for the info on here, Ive picked up so many little things you would never learn on your own so a big

from me.
Cheers
Stot
