| 550 forum posts 77 photos | Hello guys my names Matt. I've been into model engineering for about 6 or 7 years now so still a relative beginner. I'm kinda at that stage where I have the basics nailed down but I'm still at the bottom of a steep learning curve. Initially I bought a lathe for gunsmithing projects, making small parts which would otherwise cost a fortune. I started with a raglan training lathe but have upgraded 3 times since. I now own a boxford AUD and a small knee mill which suit my needs perfectly. I hope to learn mre from the knowledgeable folk here. See you around! |
