Hi .my name is Paul rogers. I have just retired. I have a myford ml7.and seig co1and pillar drill. I am buliding a h10 and s50. I have made loads of mistakes so far I have got over them,(remake) I live in thatcham Berkshire. One of my problems is milling on the lathe.i must invest in a mill when I can afford one.

Ps I made a mistake and put my induction on the wrong thread that was a good start.

Welcome Paul, lots of excellent advice to be found here

A mill is an excellent investment, I have a Tom Senior which is more than capable for my limited bodging needs and I'm learning all the time

A lot can be achieved on the lathe, have a look on YouTube for Ade's Workshop, well worth spending some time admiring his inventive approach on a small lathe - WM180

Hello again Paul, I shouldn't worry about your previous post, we are all pretty laid back on here.

Thanks Neil.i have a lot to learn I will do my best to keep my question and crys for help sensible.

Paul.

No worries, the only silly question to ask is one you already know the answer to!

Neil

A very warm welcome. I've just made the jump to mill ownership myself and the improvements over a vertical slide are well worth it, if only for the reduced hassle!

Welcome.

Welcome Paul. Look on internet for videos by Tubal Cain. Lots of very good machine tuition.
