    Default Hello from Oz

    Hi, I'm fitterman1 in Australia.
    I'm a fitter and turner and like fixing and restoring bits and bobs for myself and others. Currently doing a Bridgeport mill and a Hyco scrollsaw.
    Have completed recently a vintage single lip cutter grinder similar to a Deckel SO / Alexander.
