First video Ive ever done, oddly enough The shop fan (to the left of the screen) sounds like a freaking wind tunnel in the video. The mill itself (and Id have reshot it without the fan if Id known) is actually pretty damned quiet. Video shows all the feeds running, x/w/z at the same time. http://picasaweb.google.com/gunnerasch/Larios# Last 11 or so pictures shows me blowing the dust out of the old girl. I only have one of the two drive belts in the machine..the other one popped in half earlier today when I put power to the machine. The remaining belt is like a piece of wood, and isnt going to last long. But..the last time the old girl was run, was over 20 yrs ago..so shrug..its not surprising. Simple belts, nothing fancy. Ill pick up a pair of them next time I get near a belt place. ACE hardware has em...common belt..but I dont pay 300% of normal cost unless I really really really need something. Its Alive!!! Muwhahahahaha! Now whats my next project? Humm....12x12 Spartan bandsaw...now wheres my rust buster........hummmmm.......... Gunner Cool. How did I miss this before? Where's volume 1? Last I saw you where playing with a vertical mill. I had a flash drive video camera, for some reason it didn't make it through the road trip. All I can think of is that someone kicked the travel bag or climate change. You should see this horizontal mill that I just acquired, 6' bed. Can't wait to take it apart and put it back together.
