Hi to everyone.
Im Billy-joe 23 yrs old born and live in Wales (uk). I am a time served toolmaker. I have been around engineering since i can remember. I had my first lathe bought for me for my 9th birth day a drummond round bed. Then for my 12th i had a myford ML7 and after 11 yrs of winding handles i have just converted the myford into a cnc running on Mach 3.
I work for B.A.W precision engineering in Swansea South Wales and have had experience on Hurco ultimax control milling machines, Mori Seiki SL25M lathe with fanuc 16t control, Newall jig borer, Jones and Shipman surface and cylindrical grinders Bridgeport turret mills, Colchester and Hardinge super precision manual lathes.
