Why Do This
Hi,
I have long dreamed of being able to share my knowledge and experiences with people of similar interests. This website is the culmination of many years in dreamland, hardwork and saving, saving, saving.
My name is Pete and I am a newbie machinist. Over time I will atempt to teach myself how to build stuff in my workshop with some degree of professionalism and accuracy and all without losing limbs or blowing myself up. What kind of stuff you may ask? Well, anything really. You can’t make stuff unless you have the tools, so I keep telling my missus. Here are just some of the things I would like to build:
|
A magnetic perpetual motion motor
|
A jet engine
|
A rocket engine
|
|
A flight sim motion platform for a single seat
|
A go kart
|
A model boat – jet or rocket powered
|
|
An 8 prop flying machine |
A motorised driveway gate
|
A pergola

I hope to inspire other mental patients…kidding of course, to give up their computers ( other than web editing and email and cnc stuff ) and get into making stuff with their minds and their hands.
The purpose of this site is to provide my take on setting up the workshop using realistic resources and a small amount of space.
Throw away that electronic console game and get your hands dirty. It is time to start making things with our hands.
