Greetings all.
Name is Mike, I'm in Antioch California. Went to A&P school many years, never actually worked on an aircraft outside of school since I went into a completely different field once graduating from Gavilan Collage at the Hollister airport. Anyway, here I am, deciding that I want to get back into metal shaping for some current and upcoming projects. Projects or future projects you ask? Current - restoring/modifying my Volvo 242. Near future - go carts with body work for my 7 year old twin girls, a custom framed and bodied moped and I'm sure I'll come up with more harebrained ideas. I have a small workshop at home that is way too small or perhaps just the right sized if I threw away or sold 50% of the stuff creating the clutter. Most of my stuff is inexpensive yet workable. Old Bridgeport 3 axis CNC mill I converted to run on Mach3 HF 3-in-1 shear/brake/roller Old Sebastian 14x40 gear head lathe MIG welder, Oxy/Acet setup and a Longevity Combo TIG/Plasma cutter Thanks and please bare with me if I ask a silly question! Mike
