Hello from Canada

[stirlingboy]

Hey all,

I would like to say hello to everyone on this site. I got into this hobby about a few months back and found your wonderful site. I work as a programmer in the video game industry and after we finished our last project I decided to buy a Sherline lathe and the many accessories that come with it (although it seems to me that one can never have enough accessories ).

I've wanted to get into machining for years and only recently did I make the plunge to buy a Sherline lathe. I hope in the coming months/years to learn and make more stuff (as work time permits ;D). Again, hello to all.

Pete

Welcome Pete! How about posting a picture of that lathe? I have a Taig lathe and am always looking for the next best thing.

You're probably not going to get a reply from a 6 year old thread, especially from a member who hasn't even logged on for over 6 years either.

Looks like I better check dates more closely! My excuse would be old age and bad eyesight.
