Steve, how did you ever become the machinist you are today? Was this something you did for a living, or just something you started playing around with, and self-taught yourself? Cause you're doing a fine job, and it's working for you.

Nate , CNC machining is self taught and is a long rough road manuel machining some of both started at age of 13 on 12 x 48 hendy lathe keeping the equipment running . My dad is a ME , so I got some basics from him . Mostly , understand how something is made and how a machine tool functions with an open mind with a can do attitude .I still want a good manual mill bad . I should add I'm an operator , I cut my teeth on a "60's" 310 case dozer started full time At age of 13 on a IH TD7E and still operate it to this day . We did our own repairs and attachment making . the 310 case is the only 1 to my knowledge with a 6 way blade

thanks Alfy
