Hello from Western PA
« on: January 16, 2012, 11:04:39 PM »
  I am a retired doer of all and master of none kind of guy. I belonged to a forum that just shut down and decided to join here. I have a South Bend 9A that I restored and using since May of 2010. I also have a Sherline Lathe and Mill, both CNC. I like designing and building tools and stuff for myself and for sale. I worked in Engineering most of my life designing steel mill equipment and did some shop work also. Thanks for having me here and I hope I can contribute some of my knowledge here.

Hiya Paul  :wave:

Welcome to the collective :borg:

We try to do all kinds of things here. I find building tools (to make the tools to make the parts) to almost addictive to making those said parts.

Welcome Paul!

Love the old Valiant in your avatar!  A buddy of mine had one in high school.  A real piece of junk, but we had some great times in it!  :headbang:

Cheers

 That's not a Valiant, it's a 64 Chysler 300K ragtop, 625 made and one of 125 known to exist.

Oooooh, Nice!  Fully restored?

I'm not a big Chrysler guy, but I have a soft spot for the oldies.  :drool:
