shouldn't be allowed :)
« on: September 13, 2011, 01:33:13 PM »
I found this site from a link on a home machinist forum and I decided it shouldn't be allowed. The reason being I am going to end up spending so much time just catching up on the pics and such that my wife may leave me  :(
Anyway I am Dwayne from Redditch, Uk, welder by trade but Like messing about with machinery (modifying and creating) and hope that very soon I will have a workshop built so I can spend more time persuing this passtime.
Thats about it really now back to browsing these forums.
Turns out this life c**p is just one big distraction from death but a good one. For the love of god dont give yourself time to think.

Hi there Dwayne  :wave: welcome to the cube :borg:

Messing around with machinery is what we love to do/see/talk about, so you  should fit right in here.

Thanks for the welcome eric.
I do decorative garden products when I get the time for a little extra money but I have many ideas going through this disorganised head.
I would like to work on a multi purpose machine I have floating around in there but that will be far distant future.

Ah Dwayne,

I see many custom lathe and milling stands in your future (probably a limitless supply of scrap as well)!

Welcome
