    New to the Forum

    Hello All: I have been looking at the Homemade Tools site for a few months and just spotted the Forum invite. I am retired in Portland OR, and have a small home shop to build model engines and model making tooling. I have a 12" x 36" Craftsman lathe, bench mount mill/drill, metal bandsaw and wire feed and oxyacetylene welders along with several hand tools. Most of my little engines may be seen on YOU TUBE under the user name --parkerdjte-- model engine videos. I am also interested in old pickups and old engines but still need to learn to start the old water hopper ones to really have fun. (Dad had the real ones but space demanded I make models.) I am not very computer literate but do enjoy reading forums on homeshop machining. This site looks like I may get some interesting projects to put on my to do list. Thank You----don
