Just another old guy

[GaryK]

Very happy to find this forum!

I started out life working in my fathers machine shop. It helped me get through school.
Then I got a "real" job as en engineer and did that until now.

After I left the machine shop I missed not being able to make things so I have had a small lathe and mill ever since then.

I currently have a PM1236 lathe and a PM45-M mill. I have been making small things for a long time now, including Elmers #13.

I really like small engines and plan to make a lot more of them, hence my membership here.

I have been doing wood working for years also and you can see my work HERE.

Welcome aboard Gary! That is some lovely woodworking. I expect your metal projects are pretty nice as well. Elmer's engines are a lot of fun and very approachable. I am working on a #33 now, my third after two wobblers.
