Default New Member Intro

All,
New member to this forum though we've lurked and posted with others.
Long long time machinist moldmaker. Primary interest here is aircraft stuff. Old aircraft stuff. Nothing big but 30's biplanes and such.
We've built a few metal items and consider ourselves capable but far far from master! The part will get done but no two alike nor in a timely manner!
Have been in and out of shaping as a project or life allows! Approaching the day when we will be able to dedicate much time to this pastime and am revisiting what is new and look forward to seeing what folks are working on. We have made lots of parts (being aircraft, it'll be aluminum) including lots or cuffs and bells with funky reverses. Here's a couple:
Punching precision louvers:


A cuff/fairing:



A landing gear bell (made the pants too):



See you around!
