Ok. Here's the pics.
You can see how the machine can be configured in three ways. Small table saw/ Joniter. Or table saw / Lathe. Or just a Lathe. All easy to do.
Motor works! I plugged it in. Derrrr! :q
A little bit of smoke dust cleared in only seconds and she was a quiet half horse pwr go' er!
Smoke dust cause she hadn't been run for quite a while. Motor didn't smell after some seconds so she's okey doke!
I handed over 5o.00....:doh: only to find the machine is incomplete.
To a developer who buys kitchens from us regularly. I reckon he honestly believed it was a full goer. My fault for ...obvious what for.
I'm certain that I WILL get something out of it .
I dont have the jointer blade cylinder on which to mount the blades . :doh:
I don't have griping chucks for either end :doh:.
I'm struggling to find A.E Herbert on the net. The maker. NSW. :~ Well what do you expect for a well aged machine?
I'm new to Lathes thankyou very much! :BGo easy on me!
Interest? Only in infancy stage.
But I love this little setup.
The plank with the motor on it sits paralell ( Spelling ? ) to the main unit ( also mounted on a plank) and belt then hooks up to it. Got it?
All shafts and bearings are quite precise in their movement and freed up beautifully after a little crc had been applied.
Ok. I CAN get the table saw going and it has a mitre track. Great! I'll make a sled for it. Too easy.
I want a blade cylinder to hold the jointer blades. Where for art thou?
Bugger!
Keep breathing I say.
Oh. See? I made a mallet !
Put post in the vice. Cut the handle into shape. Rasp it to gripping comfort then lop'er off the post. Not exciting ,I know!
Some of you know I work recylced timbers. Love my Red's and Jarrahs. Fence posts. Over some time I worked out some good techs to get ALL of the nail ( s ) out then cut off the check outs. Including metal residue in the holes!
I've then got 65mm to ( sometimes 75 ) sq at some length, to play with. After running a metal det over a remilled piece, I can then joint and plane them. Bloody beaut stuff I say. Look out blades, Agggghhhh!
Made some big...BIG bench tops with'em. Come give'us a hand will you. They're heavy. Gawwwwwd!:o
Yes! I pick out a lighter post to make these mallets. I've made 3 so when they break up, I move onto another. They burn well too! :o Nooooooooo!
My darling, said I'm allowed to buy my own jointer soon. Machine at work is failing us.
You got info on my machine? Hand it over! Please???????
Thanks.
