Welcome to the forum, good to have you aboard.

Hello Tony,

​At last a new contact from God's county, I live very near Thirsk with a rather different equipment list in the shop than you have. Welcome to the forum.

Regards

Brian

Hi Neil

thanks for the welcome

Hi Brian

over near Catterick myself so not too far away from you

Tony

I'm near Harrogate - close, but not very. My kit is the far side of Brian's from Tony's As I suppose I am geographically!)

Hi Iain

You know what they say it's not what you've got it's what you do with it that counts.

I'm lucky in that my company pays for my kit not me personally, otherwise I'd still have my old worn out myford

Tony

Hello Everyone,

My Name is Troy Guyette, I am a Registered Nurse, rekindling my skills from many years past, originally from Detroit and come from an automotive skilled family in both tool making and general machining including custom engine building too.. I myself is a CNC machinist from past having learned on Conventional mills and lathe first.

I have pieced together my machine shop through auction purchases. my equipment is a 12 x 36 lathe, BS7-12gr band saw: 240 3 phase, and my recent purchase of a HS-3c pedestal drill ; 415 -3 phase. my lathe is single phase and the other equipment is running through a self made phase converter which it all works.

I look forward to listening of new projects, ideas and problem solving activities; reflecting my experience to help others and drawing from the large level of expertise available to help solve and develop problems and ideas to perfection.

I look forward to participating in the forum.

Sincerely

Troy
