Hello from Ian in Crewe

[Ian Skeldon 2Participant @ianskeldon2]

Hi,

My name is Ian, I learned a little about workshop engineering many years ago at Rolls-Royce in Crewe. Now I really have the urge to re-engage with some of the stuff I learned many years ago. I will at some point be seeking advice about which lathe and mill I should buy to help improve my workshop.

Thanks,

Ian

Welcome Ian, Before you ask which lathe / mill think about what it is you wish to make on them. I need biggish machinery to cope with motorcycle parts.

Hi Ian

I'm a Crewe Lad myself, if you are interested in getting into model engineering why not join South Cheshire Model Engineering Society http://www.southcheshiremes.com/ we have many ex RR members, we are just behind the Peacock Hotel, I'll be there this Saturday helping with a Children's party so pop over and check us out.

Cheers

Stew

Hi Stew,

Wow I didn't even know about SCMES,

Crewe has such a history of engineering it's pretty sad to see so little left from the good old days.

If I get the chance I will call down on Saturday and introduce myself in person, thanks for the invitation.

Ian
