Hello,

Just introducing myself. Am located in Regina, Sk. Have a Busy Bee B2227L lathe, Princess Auto ProPoint 145 welder, and recently a Primeweld TIG225X that still need to learn to use. Involved in British Car restoration and flying, building homebuilt aircraft. Planning on a larger lathe and a vertical milling machine at some point in the future. Mechanical Engineer by background but have always enjoyed hands-on work.

Glad to see there's a Canadian on-line group dedicated to this activity!
