nice chunk of iron...

I happen to live in South Bend and have driven past the old factory a number of times. They've changed hands a few times and are just limping along now compared to their former days of glory. Your restored machine makes my modern machine look pretty sorry by comparison. I suppose now you're going to really make me feel guilty by telling me you keep it that clean all the time... Anyway, thanks for the visual treat and keep up the outstanding work! troy

Troy, thanks for your remarks , but it being only able to swing around 7 inches , it's a bit on the small side for machining disc brake disc's. that's why i have now the milling machine . Yes, I do keep all my 'Toys" very clean . It's a pleasure to work that way, I have an old vacuum cleaner that sucks up everything around my workshop and I would sweep the floor many times a day (between drinks) after cleaning I spray everything with crc. Bruce.
