Hi .my name is Paul rogers. I have just retired. I have a myford ml7.and seig co1and pillar drill. I am buliding a h10 and s50. I have made loads of mistakes so far I have got over them,(remake) I live in thatcham Berkshire. One of my problems is milling on the lathe.i must invest in a mill when I can afford one.

Ps I made a mistake and put my induction on the wrong thread that was a good start.

Welcome Paul, lots of excellent advice to be found here

A mill is an excellent investment, I have a Tom Senior which is more than capable for my limited bodging needs and I'm learning all the time

A lot can be achieved on the lathe, have a look on YouTube for Ade's Workshop, well worth spending some time admiring his inventive approach on a small lathe – WM180

No worries, the only silly question to ask is one you already know the answer to!

A very warm welcome. I've just made the jump to mill ownership myself and the improvements over a vertical slide are well worth it, if only for the reduced hassle!

Welcome.
