I'm 60 years old, and am a self tought machinist. I work for an electronics co., and design & build machines to build & test our own products. I've been working there for 24years, my hobby's are my HO train layout and building model steam engines. I roam on all of the machinist sites they are all very interesting and informative I hope your site works out like the rest of them. And THANKS for the help Eric in posting on the site GOOD LUCK
