    Couple of small projects

    Good eye, yes it is. I have owned it for nearly 25 years, been a great little work horse.

    Couple of small projects

    Finally got around to making a stand for my Milwaukee portable bandsaw. Used ideas from several others on YT. Incorporated a clamp on table for quick conversion back to portable use. In use as a stationary tool I jig tie the switch and connect my foot pedal switch. Also welded up a toe jack...

    October is "Chuck Month"

    Or least it seems to be . Found the first two at a yard sale a couple of weeks back; a 6A and an 18N. Paid $50 for those two. Yesterday found a No3 and a 14N . Paid $80 for those along with a little metal set of drawers and a number of HSS Lathe bits. Can't complain about those prices. Of...

    Yard sale and FB Marketplace finds

    Yes it is, even $350 is not a terrible price. KBC tools has the same set for $825 plus tax.

    Yard sale and FB Marketplace finds

    It has been a good month for me in terms of finding some desired tooling on Marketplace or at garage sales. Since I sold my small shaper I have had no easy way to cut a keyway in pulleys or hand wheels. Luckily I came across this Minute Man set of broaches that will fit the bill. They looked to...

    Delta 14" drill presses

    Went to look at these this morning. They were listed as Atlas and when I asked him why he said he looked on the internet. Guess he did not read the tags. OWWM has a rule about that. Be surprised how often it happens. Anyway they are both are 14". The one in the picture is a high speed from...

    South bend 9c lathe

    While I was out looking at a couple of Delta bench top 14 inch drill presses I stumbled across a Southbend 9C lathe. The guy said he intends to sell it but has not listed it yet. He intends to ask $2500. May be a little high for a 9c but this has to be the most pristine one I have seen. Not a...

    Horizontal band saw

    Could be worse. Just this morning I said to myself " let's not get crazy other than the wheels it only needs a good clean. " And this is the result I obviously can't restrain myself! Chip pain eh, sounds like a good idea.

    Horizontal band saw

    Thanks for the link. Definitely have some modes in mind such as extension of the vise jaws and a stop rod. Also a table may be in the offering. First the wheels need fixing. They are attached directly to the sheet metal sides which bow out when you try to move it. I will be putting in a steel...
