Interesting question. Thinking about it as a person who came to machining in order to build scale train models, it just seems more appropriate to post about tool work here and model work on the other forums where I hang out, as the folks more interested in each are in those respective places.Not that it's a bad thing but seems like all the projects I see are things to improve the use of our machines. Are people actually making innovational inventions requiring lathes and mills?
The ground ties WERE flat and level when I laid them in . I had 20 yards of top soil delivered and the front left corner got raised up by the dirt . I'll just dig that corner out with the loader and all will be level to the eye . Plus , it gives me more seat time on the Bota .You could "cheat" a bit...
There are actually members on here that encourage this type of thinking ! I won't call them out though ...............That said, it makes it difficult at times to choose what area or equipment I will need in the future….so I just want everything….thats allowed here
