Hey Folks,
Paul's plea prompts me to post some pictures of my latest project for your perusal.
I've been pretty quiet because my latest project is not really woodworking; I've been working on an old (1945) South Bend 9A machinist lathe.
The first thing I had to do was take it to a parts washer and have it degreased. Then, I had to build a bench for it. For that, I built a 4" MDF torsion box, faced it with plywood, trimmed it with some Doug fir, and buried some tee nuts in the top for mounting the lathe bed. I stacked the whole thing on some salvaged drawer units and a boxed base with leveler feet from Rockler. Some paint and varnish and it works, ... sort of.
I'm now waiting for a new drive belt, some tooling, and the four different lubes needed for this little beast. I'm not really sure what I'm going to use it for, but my first project will be four oil cans for the aforementioned lubes. The biggest challenge will be keeping the sawdust off of it.
