I think it looks good up there. Sometimes size does matter.

Started cleaning up the machines. Welding, plasma cutting and grinding leave a black film on everything. The first the mill has looked this good in years. The Hardinge got a wipe, now at the Summit.
Figured Ed would be proud.
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.

The mill looks good, the lathe needs more attention.

The apron on the Summit leaks somewhere, (trying to find where AGAIN). Tried to remove the sight glass to see where the oil level was, it crumbled, (may have been the leak but think I would have seen the oil streak). Made one and had Julia cut me a glass disk. Sealed the disk to the tube with a bit of RTV.
Installed. Removed the guards from the lead screw to look for the leak. Had never checked out the lead screw. Was impressed, its 50 mm dia and 2 tpi. Quite a chunk of steel.

Good catch, Charlie was using the flashlight in his I-Phone to help out the poor camera in my flip phone.
