Chuck from E. TN is here

Man, you've been hiding this forum well! Saw the link on Hobby-Machinist, and had to check it out. Liked the look and the listed Top Builders, so I signed up. Love making tools and mods to my tools. Making tools has brought my confidence level up to where I can finally comfortably attempt my particular intrest of making models of old fashioned steam engines.
I have a Micromark 7x14 lathe, X2 mill, 4x6 bandsaw and the usual tool compliment including a rotary table, boring head, and a bunch of home made tools and accessories. The tools I have made mostly come from the top builders already listed here. I'll study the list closely, and if I come up with any that are not listed, I'll see about adding them.

Hi Chuck,

Welcome - and glad you finally found us!

Sounds as though you've got a good set of tools. You'll find lots more here that should be of use and interest.

By all means, share some photos and details of your model engines. I've always been fascinated by steam-powered devices of all kinds. Very cool stuff!!

Again, welcome!

Ken
