    Default New Member Introduction

    Hello everyone. My name is David and I live in Alabama. I've been a mechanical designer for 12+ years and use Autodesk Inventor for design software. I decided to enroll in Machine Tool Technology classes at the local Tech school. Since school started about 6 months ago I have purchased a Craftsman 12X36 Lathe and a Rockwell 21-100 vertical mill both in great condition.

    Welcome, and thanks for keeping some classic American iron alive. Very nice.

    Welcome aboard,

    Those machines look nice. I like how the rockwell machine seems to be small on floorspace, but seems heavy duty enough to take decent cuts.
