I'm new here
« on: November 20, 2010, 09:47:15 AM »
I'm new here.  I participate on a few other forums.

http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/index.php

I'm a retired Tool & Die Maker/Electrician.  I now have my own business in my garage.

I live in the USA, 40 miles West of Chicago Illinois.   45 minutes from O'hare airport to be exact.

I like posting my projects and answering questions.

I have experience with programming PLC's and building small automated systems.   I build and run my own CNC equipment.   My latest project is a Hansvedt DS2 wire EDM.

My web page if you care to have a look at what I do.

Thanks,
Jim

Hiya Jim  :wave:

Welcome to the collective :borg:

Sounds like you have a great background. Care to show off some of your CNC machines?

Hi Jim :wave:

 As said... Welcome to the collective  :borg:   


Your site looks like you have made some interesting bits and bobs.... Not got any reason to adjust my blades so you'll probably have to find another market for that one  :thumbup:

I hope you find this place relaxing (mostly) and fun.... That's what I think you will find here, guys having a bit of fun and sharing the results  :beer:




Hope you enjoy it here as much as I do  :ddb:

Hi Jim,
I am also on the other forums and when I saw your user name and thought to myself, he's no newbie, :lol:

You will find a good bunch of guys here. :nrocks: Welcome  :beer:
