Hi from Louisiana USA
« on: March 14, 2010, 11:56:24 AM »
Hi all: I am retired from the material handling industry having worked thirty years as a heavy machinery maintenance man..
I have "old iron" disease and now have mills by Kearney and Trecker, lathes by LeBlond, Southbend, and Myford..
I also like to weld and fabricate things from metal..

Thanks; Mike ::)

Hi Mike

Welcome to MadModders. That is an impressive list of machinery that you have accumulated. You should be able to build or repair most any thing  that you desire. If you have any questions, ask away as there is always someone here to give an answer or at least an opinion. As Bernd mentioned, when you find the time it would be nice to see pictures of your shop and equipment because  :worthless:.

Cheers  :beer:
