Well why paddle, when you can jump straight into the deepend.


That is me in a nut-shell.

I have a Router Lathe: Yet to use: but got great plans

I have a cada-tec wood lathe: Yet to use
I have a Metal lathe: and have now upgraded, to a largerMetal lathe: playing but not using,

All this I am getting involved in at the age of seventy, so for you springchickens out there, you can never be too old to learn anything.
In fact in this technoknowledgeable (https://www.google.com.au/search?biw=1366&bih=576&q=techna+knowledgeable&spell=1&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiwsenkh6rQAhURT48KHfjcDSMQvwUIFygA) world, you may find us older folk can catch on realfast, when it comes to hands on,
Though I mustadmit I do have a technical background, being a retired Heavy Industrialelectrical contractor and Marine electrical engineer.

So lookingforward to perusing this site, and obviously asking questions:


After all how isa bloke expected to learn if you don’t ask anything:



Thanks Denis-Peter:
