Title: New Guy From Minnesota
Post by: mnmetal on January 27, 2012, 04:50:11 PM

Hi, I'm new here. I joined up a couple of weeks ago and have been lurking. Time to come out of the closet.  :bugeye:

I live in Minnesota and enjoy making tools with my tools. Right now I'm just finishing up installing a DRO Pros Electronica series DRO on my lathe. My first DRO. I have a Vectrax 14x40 lathe, MSC's house brand, and an Enco RF-45 clone mill. I hope to upgrade my mill to a larger one in the next six months or so.
I have some projects that I'll be tackling soon that I'll need some advice on so you'll be hearing more from me, maybe too much more.  :wave:

Hi Ed  :wave:

This is a great forum. Just ask and you'll get advice, though anything I contribute is probably best ignored.

Thanks for all of the welcomes guys.

I'll be starting a thread about how to mount a ER40 chuck to a D1-4 backing plate. It won't be a "how-to" but a "how the hell do you do it" thread.  :scratch:

Much less stuffy out here than being stuck in that closet.  :thumbup:

Glad to see you here and looking forward to seeing some of your projects.
