Good morning everyone,

Been lurking around here for a while and said I better join up.

Not sure I can offer much help but have many questions lined up.

New toys

No idea what I am going to do with them but happy I have it

– A Beaver mill, sourced and checked by good friend of mine.

Needs few bits but once house is built ill start finding a home for it.

Missing the handles for the knee (splines shaft) and few other handles

If anyone has few parts for it I’d be happy as missing an inspection cover

– Emcomat 7 lathe donated by friend of mine who had it for 10 years and never used it.

It has 2sp 3ph motor and someone has tried convert to single phase using the capacitor for the mill head.

Think it’s missing 2 of the 3 thread cutting gears

Also need decide how to provide power to these.

Vfd not ideal for 2speed lathe

Vfd suit the mill but not sure will power the feed table and the aids pump

Cheers

John

No other way to be.

but to be honest i dont follow much sport, prefer to be out doing something than watching someone
