Hi everyone. I've been a reader of the forum for years – spawned from reading my Dad's paper copies of Model Engineer magazine.

I've built a good workshop where I do alot of automotive and automotive adjacent projects – from car restoration to manufacturing obsolete parts. After moving through the ranks of tooling through bench grinders and pillar drills, I eventually bought a mini lathe from a family member and have become completely hooked. Inevitably this has now progressed to a ML7, which I haven't yet collected but look forward to rebuilding.

The next step is a mill!
