    newbie here

    Hi my name is Bill I live near Boston I am a machinist by trade and am just beginning a home workshop for metal working. I have a 9" south bend lathe, a Sherline model 5400 milling machine with 3 axis DRO, A LMS mini mill solid column. My interests are hobby machining model engines, shop made tools etc. I also do some woodworking and have many wood working machines ( lathe,table saw ,various routers etc) I just found out about this site from You Tube so I am looking forward to learning and seeing what others are doing in their shops.

    Hi Bill,

    Welcome!

    Sounds as though you've got a fantastic shop setup. I'd love to see your model engines!

    I'm from Boston, too (Arlington, Waltham, and Ashland). It'll always be home and I miss it every day, but not the snow!

    What are you working on currently?

    Ken
