New from Cape Town
« on: September 24, 2012, 06:19:39 AM »
Hello,
I am new to this forum.
I am very interested in improving my workshop tools.
I have a 210 X 400 mm Screwcutting Lathe
Mini Mill
Oxy-Acetaline and Arc welder.

I am busy building a melting furnace for casting my own castings for tools.

Welcome,

Show some pics!

Nice to have someone here on the same time-zone :clap:

How's the weather there. Here it's typical northern european autum: Rainy, cool and miserable - on lighter side that means that I won't be spending that much time on the garden but inside tinkering lathe / milling machine / band saw improvements.

I have heard that Cape Town in beatifull, never been that much south. Only in Durban and that area.
