Welcome to Mike Dodd's home machinist site. in 2006 I decided to fulfill a lifelong dream of owning a metal lathe and milling machine. So I bought "mini" versions of these machines. Even though they're small, they are capable of turning out some nice work – emminently suitable for the type of projects I'm likely to tackle. Please have a look at my metalworking shop and some of the projects I've undertaken.
This is the machine shop. A kitchen sink base cabinet and countertop serve as a workbench. The milling machine is bolted to the bench, but the lathe just sits on its rubber feet.
