 Hi,
My name is Leo, age 70, I am based in the Netherlands.
My interests are wide, but technology and particularly mechanics have my interest. My shop is small, an Atlas 6" lathe (Model no 10200), a simple drilling machine and lots of  handtools. Since I do not own a mill, lots of stuf is created using hand tools.
A couple of years ago, I faced some problems with my lathe and started looking for info. Since its origin is the US, I started looking on the web for info and found amongst other the old site.
Thanks for starting this new site.
Best regards,
LeoYou cannot view this attachment.

Glad to have you aboard Leo. Using hand tools is an art unto itself. Looking forward to seeing some of your work.
Feel free to comment on the site with likes, wants, or dislikes.
