I'm really lucky in this regard. Have a 5 generation machine shop at my disposal. Founder was CS Summers in 1884. Huge brick building, maybe 6000 feet, half dozen lathes, 6 milling machines, 2 planers, sandblast cabinet, parts washers, block cookers, crankgrinding/polishing,wire welders, plasma cutters, it's all there and he lets me fiddle around in there as my great grandfather was a mechanic in town at the same time.
The grandson, 70 years old, like me, is a master tool and die maker.His son and grandson are better machineists and welders.
They have an old piston knurling machine, reline brake shoes or discs,cut Safety plate glass, anything you can imagine. Shop labor at 30 Bucks and the guys are so fast you never pay for more than 1/2 hour. 10 dollars to tap out a manifold, 10 dollars to rebush clutch, and the beat goes on.
