Greetings From Michigan
TLGriff:
Hello, my name is Tom and I am addicted to building things.
I've spent most of my life as a research machinist and have recently (last 12 years) started doing mechanical design and also some prototype machining out of my home shop. Of course that's only for the first nine hours of the day, after that machining becomes my hobby. I enjoy gunsmithing and have built a 1/5 scale Napoleon cannon, a 1911 Colt Officer's model with a few improved features and am currently scratch building a 1915 Steven's Favorite single shot rifle. I am also an avid muscle car enthusiast and drive a 540 cubic inch 1972 Chevelle SS on which I did a full frame off restoration. One of my recent projects is an anodizing set-up that stores away as a workbench when I'm not using it, so my projects can now take on a little more personality. As a former shop teacher, I also have a very active YouTube channel where I teach basic machining techniques as well as share the progress on some of my projects.
I see a lot of familiar names here and look forward to joining in on some of the threads or starting a few of my own project oriented threads.
Tom

Hi Tom
Welcome to MadModders. It looks like you have a well rounded bunch of interests and activities. I know that the members will be happy to hear and see them when you get a chance. I am sure that a few will want to learn more about your anodizing set-up. If you have any questions just ask, there is always someone around to answer or at least give an opinion. :D :D
Cheers :beer:

Hiya Tom
Welcome to the collective :borg:
Sounds like you will fit in just fine here.
I would love to see the 1911 and the SS. I am really curious about the anodizing set-up. I am very limited on space in my new shop and want to do some anodizing.

Welcome Tom, that anodising setup sounds interesting.
