Hi from Latham

[prophub]

Hi Guys,

I wanted to say Hi since I've been lurking around for a while and have learned a ton of stuff from this forum! I'm relatively new to machining and have a Sherline lathe and mill. They are great but I quickly learned it's limitations when I wanted to build Elmers geared engine and started on the cylinder. I recently got a Lathemaster 9X30 lathe and am currently waiting for the mills to come in. I have built the Humbug from plans that were in Model Engine Builder magazine and a wobbler. My first "projects" have been some prophubs for my RC planes hence the screen name.
I do have a question on my current project for my Dad's X-mas present...I'll post it in the questions and answers forum. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks!

Shawn

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for the interest. Here's a couple of pictures. The Humbug was built first and I was floored when it actually ran! The puzzle was a good learning project and was pretty fun as well.
