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.

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 :)
