intro
« on: October 26, 2011, 04:42:18 PM »
I would like to introduce myself. My name is Eugene and I am a plumber by trade. I live in Durban s Africa but also have a farm in broederstroom guateng. I hope to learn from the collective wisdom of the more learned members on this site. I am a hacker when it comes to machining but hey I still am having fun. I have an iso 40 mitco milling machine with dro and a co6320 lathe. I also have a complete emco 8 lathe and an emco v13.I have far more enthusiasm than skill
