Hi, like the title says I'm Bob from Ct. My son recommended I look into this website and the first thing I saw was the video "making of an axe." It reminds me of my high school days in metal shop with the heat treating of tools we made except we used oxy/acetylene torches for heat. I'm a gear machinist at Sikorsky Aircraft (BlackHawk, etc.)for the last 36 yrs. and have been working with metal since I was a kid. Thanks for having me.

Hey Frontdriver, welcome to the site... there's a lot of great threads in here!!

Been driving past sikorsky for 14 years, that place gigantic. You do metal working in ur own place as a hobby as well? Got any pics of projects or plans to update/change your setup?

Take your time to explore the whole site and enjoy

Probably a good place to introduce myself as well. I'm Doug, been lurking for a few months and knew my dad would love it here just as much as I do. Bought my first home a few months ago and figured I'd be able to pick up some tips and tricks on making the garage more "mine"

Welcome to GJ from a fellow Ct resident. I live in Stfd and know where Sikorsky is, and I actually work for another division of the parent company.
