Good day everyone :wave:

Several years ago I found  metal working very interesting for for me,I started slowly collecting equipment and learn this art.
So it all began,view from right to left:



After few years:



Some staff  I bought and some i restored.

Nice shop! Very clean and tidy. I don't think I could make anything in it... I would be afraid of messing up the floor!  :lol:

Welcome to the collective :borg: BTW!

I think you have a nice setup, Ilia!  I'd love to get a power hacksaw similar to yours.  A handy machine.
I see an older red drill press in the photo next to the milling machine.  Is that an old Atlas/Acorn?

Hey, don't worry about that.  It's good!  It's those friendly Brit fellers who are hard to understand.    :lol:

Have fun.  Show us some of your projects!

Ha!  No one talks like Dick Van Dyke!!!   :lol:

Ralph, I watch the BBC and PBS here in the states.  You fellers have a lot of good TV.  (Well, the ones I watch, anyway.)
But.. when they get a Yorkshireman, a Welshman, and a Londoner all talking together with a Cockney feller thrown
in, I'm thinking "Eee, blimey, wots that, mate?"  I need a translator!  If everyone talked like Wallace (and Gromet), or
Onslo, I'd catch it every time!

Two nations separated by a common language!  I love you guys.  We're like brothers from another mother.   :beer:

Aw Ralph, you know I'm just giving you a razz!
But, might have been Rumpole, Monty P, or All Creatures Great and Small.   We get quite a few Brit shows
here.  Lots of the mysteries, and shows made from classic books.  Dr. Who & Top Gear, too.
Also MI-5 (Spooks?).  It's kind of funny when they have an English actor do a down south accent.  Like
Dick Van Dyke in reverse!

Ilia, forgive us having some off topic fun on your nice shop thread!  I do like that drill press.  A shop where
I worked had one that looked just like it, except for the color.  It was an old Atlas.  A little worn out, but
still working after 50 years.
