Hey Rick

Let me be the first to say "welcome", I'm new here too but there certainly seems to be a great atmosphere and a lot of big brains hanging around in here.

Cheers

David

Thanks for the welcome!
I have no formal machining training but have DIY turned in my garage for quite a few years. I did not know how to turn a ball on my lathe so a search of cyber space got me here.
I mostly tinker with kitplanes

this one was homemade and features many bits from my humble machine  :thumbup: but I also ride motorcycles and fly a little RC.

Hi Rick,

Welcome to Madmodder. I see all the guys that get up before me have welcomed you and used all the words I would have, so now I don't have to type much more.

Enjoy your stay and let's not forget like Don said,  :worthless: See we don't read so well that's why we want pics. :lol:
