I thought I would introduce myself

Post by penguy »

As the S/N implies I enjoy turning pens.

I also am a Machinist by trade and own a small machine shop which I run as a home based business.

I have owned Quite a few SS's,which I have bought cheap and fixed them up and turned a small profit,but what is more important is I sell them to guys who could never afford a new one.

Well thats all for now, Jay

I've been around for several years on the SSusers group.. the current one and the original. I'm a retired (partially bionic) Industrial mechanic/machinist. Worked in the Pet Foods, Paper Products, and Edible Oils industry in all the crafts, and have worked wood as a hobby for over 40 years... making toys, games, and novelties. Originally a Craftsman Shop owner, I acquired a 510 and most important accessories about 7 yrs ago, and except the C. drillpress, the 510 is my core shop.
So I'm new to this forum, but not new to the 'chine or a lot of shop craft info. Hope I can be of assistance and continue in my own learning.
