Curtis,

Welcome!

The Gingery series is a great place to start. Book 1 is an absolute must

read. I then jumped to the drill press book and many years later to the

shaper book.

My hobby consists of machining, casting, welding, and writing. You can find

most of my articles on metal working at

http://rick.sparber.org/mw.htm

including details of how I made my shaper at

http://rick.sparber.org/Articles/CD/CDM/CD.htm

I welcome questions and comments. We are all here to help each other.

Countless generous people have helped me and I doubt I will ever be able to

fully pay that forward.

Rick

Hello Everyone,

  I have been interested in making my own stuff for quite sometime now.

Never having had much experience with lathes or mills or anything in their

genre, I had no starting point to work with. By accident I found out about

David Gingery and so started searching for everything I could find, so far

I'm just trying to get information, as I'm about to have surgery and will be

unable to do anything for at least a few months. I might try to get the

series of books written by Gingery to read while I'm healing, but as far as

getting out to do anything hands on will have to wait until at least April.

  So if there are any nooks and crannies of info that I might need to go

with everything else in his books that you guys have already worked out I

would appreciate it!

Thanks. By the way if it matters, I'm in the Tulsa Oklahoma area and my user

name is fundreamer1
