Hi, new to the forum, I am retired, amatuer machinist who just started making useless swarf out of perfectly good metal. I have built the Hoglet v-twin and am currently working on the steam donkey by William Harris. I also do a little bit of aluminum and brass casting with a small home foundry setup. For equip I have a Sherline lathe and mill, a 10x18 lathe and the usual assortment of other tools (band saw, grinder, oxy acet and a small mig welder). I am located in the sunny Okanagan Valley of BC

Hi terry  :wave:

Welcome to the collective  :borg:

I would like to see more pictures of your Hoglet... and hear your tale on building it. I want to build one soon.
