hello from Italy

Hi all, I have been lurking for too long, being a subscriber since 2017 finally I wanted to join the community.

I am an hobbyist with interests in metalworking (obviously) and electronics.

My shop includes two lathes, a cinese T660 and an Italian Merli-Padovani 165, 2 milling machines, a bf20L which I have recently converted to cnc an an old Rigiva(riva) U8 plus variuos tool grinding machines like a deckel S1 and a lip515 surface grinder (small but useful).

with all this meat I do enjoy doing mantainance on my boat, fixing broken things for me and my friends and of course building new tools .

that's all

thanks to modelengineersworkshop for so many ideas and hints I really cannot keep up with and to the community for ..the same reasons

cheers

Fabio

Buongiorno Fabian.

There are lots of international members on MEW and new ones are always welcome. I live in Sydney, Australia and have retired from a career in mechanical engineering design. My hobby interests are mostly steam related (and boats). A steam powered boat is high on my wish list.

Hi Fabio.
Welcome to the group. I assumed a lot of your work may be in stainless steel if boat related?
