Hi everyone.
My name's Ian, I'm 24, live in Brampton, work in Mississauga, Ontario. I'm fascinated by machining and manufacturing, and I'm interested in learning everything I can.
I did a little university for computer science, then finished college for automotive technology. I've been selling auto parts for the last three years. The job is ok, but less than challenging.
I'm looking for a machinist (manual or cnc, both eventually) who enjoys teaching motivated students. If I can find the right person, I'd like to trade my time, say 3 nights a week, 6-10pm, or so, in exchange for their knowledge.
I have some very fundamental experience with manual lathes, from highschool. And some experience from school with g-code programming. I've been poring through introductory machining texts from the '60s and '70s recently.
If there's anyone around who's interested, I'd love to hear from them.
Thanks everyone.
