Hi to all. My name is George and I live near Albion MI. I have a small 25 X 14 CNC setup that I put together a couple of years ago. I am now building a bunch of CNC cut Experimental Airplane parts. I built and have flown my own airplane. I am retired after 39 years at Albion College.
I also have a small 7 X 10 Harbor Freight Lathe. Just ordered a 4 jaw chuck so I can have a go at building one of the simple engines. I think that may make things easier. I will also be doing as much as I can on the CNC. Will take a lot of pictures when I get started and keep you all up to date.
If any of you are doing CNC and using Mach3, I have a very nice 3 and 4 axis screen set you can download from: http://www.mrrace.com/SimpleMill/ If you want to look at some of my airplane projects you can go to: http://www.mykitairplane.com Click on the Products Tab to see the kind of stuff I am building.
If anyone is just getting started with CNC I have about 2 years of experience to share as a new comer / non machinist. Have learned a lot the hard way, but all good experience along the way.
