hello my name is Mike I live in Melbourne Florida in Brevard County I'm trying to find somebody that can teach me about machining. I know there has to be someone out there or a group that loves to pass down the knowledge I am very eager to learn and would be greatly appreciative. I have recently gotten a Bridgeport series 1 variable speed Mill and a maybe 1980s Clausing Colchester 13-in lathe I'm in the process trying to figure out their power service( my garage is resid. split phase zervice) I'm hoping to get them up and running either by vfd or are rpc ... I definitely would like to maintain the stock controls on the lathe. anyway as soon as they're running or maybe even help me get them running I would love to find someone knowledgeable about machining and setting up machines and so on... does anyone know how I could do this? I have looked at community college classes I'm trying to figure that out with my work schedule but I really would like to meet a machinist or even a journeyman.. perhaps there is a group have people like me that have a love for creating things from metal and of course heavy machines if anyone has any information how I could accomplish this please let me know thank you very much
