for anyone that has a manual on this.
TIA DuWayne

Cash is king. And not much of it.

Gorton MasterMill
Clausing 2540 horizontal mill
Covel OD grinder
Clausing 15x48 lathe #1501
Ramco 6x18 surface grinder
Katakura 4C turret lathe (a cutie)

well..hell....its not exactly current, but

Since I sorta got interested in welding recently..I scounged and
rebuilt this stuff

In the background you can see the 4x8 welding table and the Miller
Dialarc 250 AC/DC stick machine mounted under it. (blue thingy above
the red hose reel above the orange mig welder)

I built over the last couple weekends a 16' x 16' "awning" to cover
the welding and wood working tools. Ill finish it up this weekend,
weather permitting. The 4x8 x 16' timbers were free from Leigh at
MarMachine from a demolished building, the 3.5" pipe was free from an
oilfield co. the 3/8" 4x8 ply sheets for the roof was from BIG machine
tool packing containers...the rafters were scrounged. So far, Ive got
about $10 invested in it. Mostly welding rod, nuts and bolts from
Reliable tools fasterner bins....I get that stuff for about a buck a
pound..brother in law discount...G

Nearly everything you see in the pictures was scrounged or taken in
trade for other Stuff. I have mostly gas and a few gallons of sweat
equity in most of it. Very little money which is good, cause I dont
have any. Folks have been good to me, and I try to return the favors
to them, and to others in passing things along if I cant use em.
Sometimes I manage to sell a few things here and there, but no one
comes over and goes away empty handed without getting free Stuff.
Tools, materials, parts, dogs, cats..the usual...

"Cast your bread upon the water and it shall be returned a 100 fold"

Once I reached a certain point..it kinda sorta snowballed on its own.

Anyone need a gas fired heat treating/melting oven? Commerical grade,
about 18"x18" x 20" deep? Free to a good home. Located in Costa Mesa
California. Includes the burners, regulators etc etc

Im glad to see that somone got the EDM and Tree CNC mill..I really
didnt want to have to move them....

Im home on weekends, if anyone wants to make a road trip. I might even
feed you. Need cats? Pups? Kittens? Stuff?
