Default Intro from Oregon

Currently running a machine tool manufacturing business.Only manufacturer in the world making milling heads for small to huge lathes. Installed on slides, it also is a portable milling machine. Sales are worldwide. Used in every US Navy nuclear sub. I make EVERY part in house in a currently one man shop. Probably make the most four step machine pulleys in America at this point- selling them to other machine tool builders. Gotta LOVE CNC machine tools! From the pulleys, to the handles, the spindles, every part is made right here.

Collecting and using literally 100's of machines. I have several cars under restoration, a rather large collection of Oliver woodworking machines, and many sheet metal machines. I've decided it's time to get into making some panels for car restoration, and thanks to the internet, found this site. With around 18,000 square feet of stuffed space,I'm having way too much fun. Time to get an english wheel! Just bought a semi rusty 1969 911E that needs a complete restoration, so it's time to get serious. So not sure if I have a hobby that's run amuck, or a business that's turned into a hobby.
