just unloaded my first lathe for my garage
well , I finally went and bought a machine tool for home, I found a nice
little Monarch 16 CY , circa 1945 with flame hardened ways , it has a non working trionics dro to move it I rented a lift deck 6x 10 trailer from sunbelt rentals , the deck lifts and lowers via hydraulics , I also made some angle iron frames with 8 inch casters to put under the headstock and tailstock , worked really well , I could push the 3500lb lathe around the garage without difficulty, Now , to get thaty electric service to the garage and a rotary three phase converter..... |
I for one am looking forward to the continuing saga of your lathe
coming on line. Any pictures of the addition to the family? ;) TMT |
have taken some ,
will try to post some to the drop box for everyone |
