Default Hello

My name is Rocky,actually is my name I must have been an ugly baby, I'm from southeast Missouri. I have passed welding cert tests many times for my job. I have a 1937 Hendey 16x30 lathe converted from gang drive with a Lima motor gearbox setup and also a 1930's Becker vertical knee mill. I have taken machinest classes at the local college and intend to try and build some metal tools for personal use. This looks like the place to see how it's done.


Rocky

Welcome Rocky,

I am about a year into a 18 month machining program, As soon as I found this site I stepped back from CNC and am starting making Dies.

I look forward to seeing your projects.
