fitter Turner by trade with cnc milling experience. 52 years old and just bought my own lathe. Forced into it as my workshop in the local school will no longer be available due to my contact retiring. Main interest is old lambrettas. Real money pits!

Hello Paul,

'Young' George forgot to mention that he's currently – but not for much longer – the youngest member of our ME society, the Cambrian Model Engineers, which covers mid Wales. There are a group of our members around the Llanidloes area which is about as far west as we go so far. Where are you?
