Got my order for work this morning. Very nice hammers, they feel like they will hold up way better than the cheap sledges we have been using. I wish the complimentary flashlight was USA made as well, but oh well it was free! I will most likely be placing additional orders in the near future.

Here is what they ended up looking like. They took about two minutes per hole. I also attached a cutaway view from the original print showing the skew between the through hole and countersink. I guess whoever designed it was more concerned with clearance in the passage than the strength of...

If I used a counter sink tool I would have had to rotate my work piece perpendicular to the machine spindle. I was trying to get both the drill op. and the countersink op. completed from the same setup is the reason I used the ball mill.

Yeah, they are put in white hot. It's a pretty interesting piece, It's held together with 32 1" dia. rivets, and then cover with water passages to keep it from melting down while it's operating.

exactly. I think I got it worked out now, I rotated my entities 12 degrees then created a surface and it looks like it is going to work out. The reason for the difference in the hole and the countersink is that this part has to be riveted together and the rivet head has to be flush or...

I got a project I'm trying to wrap up at work that has some 78 degree countersinks machined parallel to the face a plate that is bent on a 12 degree angle. I would just lay the part over to compensate for the angle, but the through hole I have to drill in it is drilled in the same plane as the...

I found this powermatic 66 on facebook last week. My garage technically isn't finished yet, so it's covered up for now. It's in excellent condition and has a forrest woodworker II blade on it. He also had a awesome delta jointer i regret letting go now.

Price Drop, $175 shipped.

I listed this a couple years ago and ended up not selling it. I have it on Ebay currently and thought I would throw it back up here and see if there was any interest. This length rule isn't in production by Starrett, and has been replaced with 48" and 72" models. IT does have owner marks but...

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000E8DLT0/?tag=atomicindus08-20 We use these blades where I work to cut weld bevels on 1-1/2" thick 6061 sheets. They do pretty well if lubricated. We use a worm gear Milwaukee saw.

Sounds like you already have a solution, but just sharing some input from someone who uses a vacuum table every day. I have used mdf to hold sheets of aluminum, teflon, lexan, and G10 (what I cut everyday). Both sides get a skim cut over the surface to face them them the suction through it is...

Thanks for the input. His auction has 2 days left with no hits, so I might be getting a chance at it. I'll be sure to take a look at the rollers if I get to look at it. Would I be best to get a replacement top for it if I happen to get it or just make one of my own since the box isn't in 100%...

I'd be interested to know which Nucor plant supplies the steel for them. I've spent a lot of time in a lot of nucor plants. I need to add a few Wilde tools to my box.

I talked to the guy and if he doesnt get it sold on his ebay auction in four days he's going to deal with me. I'm probably not going to go much over my offer on it.

Haha, yeah that's the same box I have my offer on.
