Hello ALL !! My name is Dave....I'm a retired ARMY Helicopter mechanic (26years). I still work in the aviation industry. I'm not a machinists by any means !! Here to learn all I can to make whatever I can come up with !! I now have a new 7x16 mini lathe, a nice drill press, grinder, belt/disc sander, and tons of hand tools. The lathe is just about a month old now and have QCTP for it, really like that, it's a 0XA. I had a Unimat for years and sold it last weekend. I have a basic understanding of the machine and want to get the most out of it. It does need a lot of the mods I have read about here. It has a lot of sloppy parts !! Great to have a place like this to learn from.
Thanx again,
Dave
