Lathes mounted. Time to get to work now...
Looking good Alex!
How much for the Octane hood...? haha!
This picture of reduction pulleys and levers takes me back...My grandfather had a lot of that old craftsman wood working machinery.. I have the old catalogs he gave me. way cool to look at!
Short story..A former co-worker I know used to fab up contraptions all the time.. He got a used GETRAG 5 speed manual tranny out of the local classifieds, then mated it up to his lathe and a used a electric motor from a Hobart commercial food mixer...
-He also made a bio-diesel system way before it was trendy.. Took a 12v elec pump, Tapped heater lines off his 7.3 ford turbo diesel.. they teed into a small honda heater core inside a small pony keg.. preheating the bio diesel.. dude was a nut. I nicknamed him the astronaut farmer... I hope I did not just spark interest in a few people to try some crazy S** t like him.. haha Carry on Sprocket!
