Hey all,
I've been lurking for a while here trying to absorb as much information as I can on machining. I worked in a machine shop for a few years right of of high school, but haven't done anything much since. (I'm 53)
Made it to the Grizzly tent sale yesterday, long story short, bought a lathe and a mill, then some basic tooling to get me started. Should be fun!
Set them both up last night and did the break-in procedures. Now to mount them solid, level, and start making chips.
They both had been returns for one reason or the other, but seem to be working just fine.
I'll be asking lots of questions as I know just enough to get myself into trouble
