Hi Guys
I live in Pretoria. I have quite a few hobbies but due to time constraints they do not get an equal amount of attention especially with the other half always thinking of "higher priority" chores that must be done first.
I have a backyard foundry with an oil fired burner, I mainly do lost foam casting for most of my projects.
In my home workshop I have a chinese lathe milling machine combination (HQ800) which I aquired recently and then there is my favourite, old trusted Myford ML7, probably older than me but still working perfectly.
I also belong to a rifle shooting club where I shoot full bore and air rifle, I absolutely love my PCP air rifles.
I attached two photos of recent projects, (I hope the attachments are successfull) the first one is a casting I did for a steady for my Myford lathe and the second photo is two tangential tool holders one left and the other right hand, they are made out of 2 parts, and welded together and just to be a little fancy I parkerized the surface.
Thank-you for the warm welcome.
Buksie
