Just wanted to do a quick intro, my name is Frank I found out about this board through a member over at the shovelhead forum I hang at, a little bit about me: 15 years in the Air Force as a C-130 heavy maint acft mechanic (sit behind a desk more these days though) I have been steadily getting into more machining (lsouthbend 13" lathe and a bridgeport j head) building custom motorcycle parts mainly for Harley Davidsons, hope to pick up a few things from y'all and maybe be able to repay the favor back as well

Welcome Frank!
Those machines will come in very handy when you start dreaming of building an English Wheel. Most of my tools start off as 'drops' so they come in handy, but my mailman hates me (70 pounds of random metal pieces) in a flat rate box. Tom
