Hi Im Nick 39 for Denbigh, I am an Ultra Precision Engineer for an optics company Qioptiq http://www.qioptiq.com/defense-and-aerospace.html
I use a Nanotechnology Diamond turning CNC lathe: Moore Nanotech 250UPL/450UPL and 600UPL on a day to day basis to make world class optics
using Diamond tools form Contour and Apex, unfortunately I cant go too much into specifics as Im under the official secrets act but its all interesting
stuff
However my hobby is a bit more down to earth lol I restore classic/chopper/cafe racer motor bikes, from welding, engine building, to spraying etc. Im about
to embark on CNC conversion of my Myford ML7 lathe which is a bit more accessible real world of engineering than working to the nearest nano metre.
Obviously I can write and decifer CNC code but I am an absolute newbie when it comes to the control and drive of the actual machine, so if I can pick
all your brains, I will also do my best to help anyone out when it comes to my area of expertise
Cheers for looking and thanks for any help in advance
Nick
