Re: Hello from Perth, Australia.

Man, if I had a lathe and mill at the moment you would be welcome to use them. I'll probably pick up a mini lathe to do spacers for the suspension and a myriad of other small bits and pieces, but we are also doing this as an exercise in constraining all possible costs, so no unnecessary toys - all driveable prototype and production car engineering work will be subcontracted out.

As drill presses are so cheap these days they can almost be considered disposable items, so I'll try to do as much milling as I need this way, or using the lathe as a mill when that becomes necessary to buy.
