![]() 5 forum posts | Hello everyone. I am an experimental engineer engaged in my own workshop in creating apparatus for testing various mechanical engineering prototypes. I have been a Bridgeport man all my life so I have one of these - actually a clone from Taiwan with Mitutoyo positional display on a non-interruptional power supply (couldn't do without it). I also have a Smart & Brown model "A" lathe which I really appreciate and have just bought an Alexander 3D manual diesinker for which I want to source some collets. I am adding a three axis router with 25,000 rpm spindle from a University. |
