Boy when I un pin off the task bar most of the time they are gone forever. This is a good machine for strange procedures I request of it. Older pictures I re-found

 I needed to cut a slanted slot in the piece of mesquite for the name. I got the slot cut then  put spacers  to get the name the right height. Customer was happy.

 

Too bad the company went cnc.

But, what is it? Very interesting.

Strange pictures.  He must not know.

Are you kidding? I have 3 of those...one is called a tire, one is called a record player and the other is called a lazy susan.

 

Nah, ain't got any one of those anymore, but sounded good.

 

That is a neat contraption!

I got back home late yesterday and forgot I had posted these pictures.

 

A neat machine that was built to have a human down around the end with the crank on it.!!!.. whether he turns it is up to him. I've been in therapy because of the machine ever since I set this thing in the shop.. ... I  only  know one language which in my case is a very slow speaking and slower thinking type of American English and the machine seems to not give a rats . . . if it moves or not.  

   Oh it did come with lots of video's on disk and tapes but there again I don't watch any you tube thingies so yes , a large rut I have been delegated to live in..

  It has lots of these wheels and gears hanging on the wall and I do have them memorized like that one has 4 holes in the middle and this one has 2 holes and so on.

    The router is bolted on and the bits are made to move in to the wood where the wood is what moves up or down, either direction around and around and or back and forth. So after a person turns a bowl or something on a regular lathe he or she can add some extra things for effect.

 

This machine will let a person move away from just plain Jane things to what ever might be in your mind just waiting to jump out and surprise someone..

 

Those are some awesome barley twists!

Dan, ain't you glad we don't live on the coast. It sure gets hot up here in my part of Tx but hey I don't have to be outside. My sister lives in Lake Charles. They went all the way to Dallas for a few days. A couple of day ago we went to Jacksonville, Tx and coming back through Dallas and Forth Worth we experienced two or three times more traffic than we have ever seen through that area.. and strange for there were lots of Florida cars. 

WOW!!! Not sure what else to say...those hangers...WOW! Something I only dream about doing...

 

That green pitcher/urn is WAY cool!

Even with all the CNC stuff coming out I would like to have one of those someday. I have the cheap Craftsman Router Crafter version and have made some table legs but that will do so much more.
