Greetings folks!


The web address is http://pwp.etb.net.co/ceramosb/. Sorry for the funk!

I have put up some photos of my progress with the Gingery lathe so far.
Being my first webpage ever, the layout is rather skeletal; the pictures
were taken with a very basic five year old camera (Benq DC 1016). Better
diagrams and pics will be forthcoming in time.
Comments appreciated.


Regards,

Camilo Ramos

There is nothing to apologize about your webpage. It shows what you are
doing very clearly.

Please continue to post your progress on this. Building something like this
from scratch is quite a project. Being able to deviate from plans shows
that both your hands and mind is engaged in the project.

Congratulations on your efforts, I hope to see more of this as you continue
to work on it.

Good clear web page.

My only suggestions is to add information in the "alternate text"
fields for people [like me] that keep the automatic graphics
download in my browser [Firefox 2.0] turned off most of the time
due to my slow speed [28.8 POTS] connection.

Your use of new materials/techniques [e.g. UMHMW bushing/bearing]
is good, as is the use of weldments.

Keep up the good work, and let the group know how you are doing.

Nice job. I think I'd make a second headstock support and use the best
one for the headstock and the other for the tailstock, like that Murad
lathe. Then you could also use it as a horizontal boring mill. The
first successful American production milling machine, the Lincoln, was
set up this way.
