Ah, I didn't realize you were talking about two transformers. I doubt it would work but I'm afraid you've tapped all of my transformer physics knowledge, little that there was.

Darren, I can't even interpret my sketches I would hardly subject you guys to them.
Besides, why did I care? I was scrapping the humongeous brush style motor and it's frankenstien speed controller with it's two large vacuum tubes that glowed purple and hummed tunes I couldn't identify.  Edited to correct spelling of "scrapping"

Because you never know when such sketches will come in handy. Where would we be today if the cave men didn't scratch stick figure men hunting prehistoric animals on cave walls? We may have assumed that they had a prehistoric grocery store and that would have made the Flintstone's cartoons more documentary and less child entertainment!

Darren, give it over, I'm beyond help for remembering most things like "where did I file that sketch".

No showroom, just a workroom.
Old Powermatic drill press, not fancy but functional. Has power feed and is nice to have handy when the mill is set up and I need to drill a few holes. South bend 'Heavy 10' lathe - 1952 Bridgeport 'J head' mill - 1966 Inverters to convert single phase to 3 phase for lathe and mill. Makes for a nice setup because it gives you variable speed on this old equipment with step pulleys. Work bench, doubles as an anvil (-: Portable welder Past, present and future projects.

Here's some pics of my shop and machines doing some project work. The shop was built in 2003, the first machine I bought for it was the Ellis 1600. The Ellis is the heart of the shop, if it were ever to be to taken away from me I would stop welding and sell everything else.
