Brit Ex-pat in France

Hello everyone,
My names Richard,
I'm a returning lurker that has just bought a little peatol lathe from the bay hoping to do some turning/machining for fun and parts fabrication for my little business.
When I receive my lathe and tooling I will hopefully be asking all sorts of basic questions and showing some of my work
If anyone has any links to a good metals supplier that will ship internationally I'd be most thankful
Richard

Hi Richard :wave:
Welcome to the collective :borg:
I think you will find the answers to you questions here... including some to questions you didn't even ask :smart:
What sort of business do you have?

Hi Richard,
Welcome to MadModder.
The problem with shipping metals is the weight and cost. I fly to Limoges or Bergerac (the latter in two days' time) but with Ryanair so baggage weight is precious or I'd bring you some.
I think we have other members who live in France, so maybe one of them could assist with suppliers there.

I have a small engine chainsaw/mower/strimmer repair service that i run along side my property maintenance business, It's mostly parts swapping and re-threading/winding pull cords but I've passed over a couple of jobs that i could have made a custom fitting for with a mill or lathe.
Also I've been looking at playing with or re-purposing some of the old strimmer engines in to something useful ???
