Okay Rob, it seems that i am the only one man enough to say this....

I HATE YOU!!!!

Maybe you could write up a quick "How to get your shiny bits shinier"!!!

Awesome work and it is going to be a fine machine when you are done!

The mill kind of has the same shape as my Clausing!

i hate me too Andrew


Evening chaps

Made a start on the Y axis bearing/motor mount block ,,,, whittled from a bit mystery metal .

Setup in the lathe for boring .


Bored for bearings and seal .


Still needs a tad more machining.

Hi Rob,
I have to agree with Bob, looks a bit rough on those two steps.

Looks good Rob

it will look ok with a coat of paint

Well grabbed an hour or so in the shop tonight .Mounted block on the fixture plate i used to machine the table ends and set the job up on the face plate to machine the spigot that locates the block on the knee.


Ruffed the job out .


Had to leave it there for tonight and let the job cool down and check that nothing has moved as i was riving on.

As usual Rob, very nice machining. That reminds me, I need to order a bull nose center for a project coming up in the near future.
