    Hi. Another new member here from Adelaide. I am just getting into metal working and have an Eriksen 180NE lathe (need info on this) and a Bridgeport mill. TIG and MIG welders. Parkanson Power Hacksaw (need info on this).

    Previous experience limited to car restoration.

    High fellas. I am in the Adelaide Hills so nice and close to MB. I have built up a Mk1 Escort from a rusty shell into a decent tarmac rally car. Just wish I had the mill and lathe when I did it as I could have made some parts alot better.

    Hi mk1_Oz,

    Welcome to our Metal Works Forums

    You might consider adjusting your location to your suburb.

    The reason is sometimes a member may be living adjacent to you in the next suburb.

    This member may be able to offer onsite advice or demonstration if he knows you are close by and does not have to travel clear across the city.

    The mob here are pretty clued up and its generally not long after an inquiry is made that help is offered.
    Alternately don't hold back if you think you can help some body else.


    again! Welcome to the mob.
