Hello from Newfoundland!

Hi all; I'm a new-ish hobbyist, still very much getting my feet under me. I'm originally from Edmonton but have settled in small-town Newfoundland after some detours (Toronto and Virginia). During the move out here, I had to leave behind pretty much everything, so I'm starting from scratch in terms of tools and equipment.

I'm currently working on a de-metric-ified CAD model of the Bonelle tool and cutter grinder; building the thing itself is well beyond my current capacity but it's teaching me Fusion 360 pretty well. I plan on posting it (and some questions I can't figure out) once I finish checking it over. Otherwise, I'm curious about what other people are working on and looking forward to starting my own projects.
 
(it's not that I mind a metric grinder, but finding BA sized taps is a nightmare so I thought I'd switch all the threads to sizes I can get easily)

Cool. Where did you locate plans? I can't recall if this was one of the build threads I followed. It's been a while since I had lofty ideas. He did some mods right from the get-go. There are some nice examples out there. Almost a cult (but not like Quorn's, now THATS a cult haha).
