Hi all – just wanted to introduce myself. I'm pretty new to machining but have recently purchased a fairly clapped out Bridgeport mill and a (hopefully quite good!) Colchester Master lathe so looking forward to learning a lot! I've been reading the forum for a while now so thank you !

Hello Tom and welcome.

With equipment like that you must be thinking of making something a bit bigger than '0' Gauge locos!

If you have any questions you know where to come.

Ha ! Yes, most of my plans a bit more agricultural than that, but the knowledge on this forum is an incredible resource! Thank you.
