Hi all
Not quite woodwork, I know, but I've got the chance to acquire a milling machine and a metalwork lathe (a Myford) - do either of them have a use for the home woodworker?? I can't convince myself that they do - unless I get into making metal planes or use the milling machine to flatten the soles of the planes I already have (assuming that's possible...?) - I love coming to things from a standpoint of almost complete ignorance!
Any got any views?
