From Albuquerque NM
Retired USAF machinist/welder
Equipment:
2 SB lathes
Clausing mill
Rockwell mill
3 pantographs
Rockwell drill press
disk/belt sander
Rockwell band saw

I have no welders :cry: and I want to build metal furniture so I'm not quite there yet. I want a TIG and a MIG welder.

Nothing to do with welding but I also want to build pool cues.

T411,
First off thanks for your service and welcome to the forum. I'm sure before long you'll be contributing as well as learning from the wide knowledge base we're accumulating here. We have folks on here that are as new as a baby to people with 40+ years of experience. You could probably ask a question here on any subject you could dream up and find a well researched answer. We want to know the answer as much as the person asking and are willing to go out of our way to find it if we don't already know. That's the true greatness of this forum.

I wish I had a few of the items you've listed and more than that, I wish I had the room for them.

Len
