Hi all,

Just thought I'd take a couple of minutes to say hello, I'm just staring delving into this world with a build of a Hemingway Kits sawing and filing machine.

I've had one of the ubiquitous Chinese mini lathes and a small 3040 CNC router for a good few years, but only really used them for prototyping plastic and aluminium parts. I hope I can get some advice and pick up some new skills from here as I'm sure I'll make loads of mistakes

Hello Ro and welcome. I'm miles away from you in Derbyshire. Any questions, you have but to ask. Someone on here will have the answer.

Hi Geoff and Brian, thank you for the welcome

Geoff, I'm over the other side, down by Hythe. Barton on sea is lovely and the offer of help is greatly appreciated!

Welcome to the forum Ro,

Sounds like you will have most of the basic skills already
