Welcome Henning :beer: |
Henning:
Thanks for all the warm welcomes! :nrocks: --- Quote from: Bogstandard on May 18, 2011, 03:34:20 PM ---Henning, Don't let having a disability put you off, there are a lot of lads on here that are a lot worse than yourself, and they have carved themselves a niche to fit into, turning out superb work in their own rights. It is just a matter of adapting your machinery so that you can operate it safely and most probably a little more slowly, but once you have cracked it, there are no limits to what you can achieve. Bogs --- End quote --- Beeing (relatively ::)) young i grow back nicely, so i will probably gain almost full use of my hand again. Index finger will probably give me some troubles, but all my fingers are there so i am very (VERY) lucky. So no big deal in the end. Finished my tailstock camlock mod yesterday, a little fine tuning and it's on to the various adjustments necessary after i've had everything in pieces! Here's a couple of pic's of my tailstok camlock: Lathe is a Sieg C3 whcih came with DRO standard. Paintjob is "courtesy" of Norwegian importer. I recently sold a C2 from same importer but older model and that had angular roller bearings, so today i will investigate what's inside here and if i need to change bearings in the headstock. Thanks again for the welcome! |
PekkaNF:
Warm wellcome :beer: I'm really a greenhorn here, but I allready feel home here: I started something (taper turning) and then I noticed I need more tools (like steady rest) that will require me to make T-nuts for the rotary table and learn how to mill inverted V and some other things I even don't have a name. Get your daily :dremel: here! Pekka |
Henning:
Thanks Pekka! Seems to be every nordic country represented here :beer: As to interests, my main interest is having a lathe and mill for the odd jobs that pop up, but i will probably try and build an engine soon. Then we'll see... |
Trion:
Velkommen Henning! Where are you from? Keep the pictures of your work coming. Good to hear your hand is recovering :) |
