Jan Trollerud Sandefjord, Norway ic_norway@hotmail.com 10/02/2006Here are some pictures for the Shop gallery.
A year and a half ago I had an electrical fire in my old shop which really was a set back, We manages to salvage my mill and Lathe and some hand tools, all else was lost. This is my now new, larger and improved shop, I am now sporting 3 phase 32amps so I ran out and bought a lager lathe.
Weiler Matodor Lathe:
This lathe is German produced, it sports revs from 30rpm to 3550rmp, very impressive. It also came with lots of goodies like collets, steady follower,
4 jaw chuck (independent and regular). 8 tool
holders for the QCTP. Sony digital on the X-axis. I am looking forward
to working in this machine. I just finished leveling it.
Harbouor Freight Gear Headed mill.
This is a good machine for its price, sturdy and
solid. I also have Vices, turn table, clamp set, boring head, collets.
Myford ML7
This is a real nice Modeling Lathe from the UK. It is a 1950 model that I completely restored about 4 years ago. Lots of attachments for it and homemade stand.
Note in picture "Myford 2" picture, the home made read out with the help of a dial indicator and a old digital caliper...... works well.
Pegg Board and bench.
Yea I know its a mess. It really takes time to get everything in order.... almost there. Note the Mic case.... burned! The wooden case was burned a bit but the mics where ok so I just sanded and kept it.
