Back when I was into building telescopes (something I haven’t done very much of in the last few years) I developed a desire to try some machining. I managed to pick up a 6″ Atlas mini lathe. And… well.. I’ve done very little. It’s sitting on my workbench in the garage. This website demonstrates some cool projects that can be done with inexpensive Taig mills and lathes.

So, I got a Taig.
