Thanks for letting me join, I wasn't sure if I had to be Canadian. I found my way here on the recommendation of @mmcmdl.
I am a retired machinist/job shop owner, originally from the San Joaquin valley of California. I now live in the mountains of north-eastern California. I have a small home shop, consisting of a South Bend Heavy 10L and Kent vertical mill (BP clone), along with various stock cutting and welding equipment. Machining was my second career but always my first love. I was a machinist at heart long before I even knew what that was. I was over 40 before I could build a wooden gate that would open in the winter.
Everybody loves pictures......
