  1. Hobbyist Machining Advice

    If anyone's curious I went with the lathe. Precision Matthews 1022V. This should be plenty of lathe for the next few years. I appreciate everyones input.

  2. Hobbyist Machining Advice

    I mean, I do get the sentiment. And I agree, but at the same time price will always play a part. I just can't justify dropping 3-5k for a machine just to realize in 6 months that machining/gunsmithing jsut isn't my thing. I've done that too many times where I go all in then end up selling...

  3. Hobbyist Machining Advice

    I'd say about 2k per machine. Not counting additional equipment. Tos tart off with they would go in the one car garage side.

  4. Hobbyist Machining Advice

  5. Hobbyist Machining Advice

    I agree, and I plan to look into that in the future. I've got about 8 months of classes with SDI before graduating the certificate program. Not enough time to do both with work and family.

    Any fellow woodworkers?

    Or in my case, novice woodworker So I spent an enjoyable afternoon cleaning and working on my future shop. It's in the third car garage, so I have it all to myself. The first thing that I did was to build some cabinets for a base. The top of the workbench will be covered with laminate...

  11. CB Radio Questions

    3-4 miles wouldnt be bad, Like I said it would mostly be for talking around the neighborhood during emergencies, or SHTF type scenarios. Now I was looking online for reviews and such, and saw something on the export radios. They have more power it says, but it looks to me like they would be...
