Hi, I've been doing armatures and mainly undercutting Mica the hard way for years but in the last six months so much work has come in that it's no longer practical to devote the engine lathe to such a time consuming, tedious task. So I'm looking for a stand-alone armature lathe along the lines...

Coljar... $125!? Man, you stole it at that price! I believe it actually dates from around 1946. Great score!

Score!.... And a well-deserved "You ****"!

Looking good, rrich...and nice job on that machine turned aluminum band!

Hi guys, I'm finishing up a build and the original part is "fubar". I've been watching ebay but nothing's showing up so I thought I'd check here and see if anyone has one. Could also use a bench top base for a 103 if there's one within driving distance of 93021 in southern California.

Hey RagTop, What a great find on that 9998!... I'm with with Drives on this one, it would be nice to see that box in green. (Kinda like me, with envy! ;^)

That's an absolute first for these eyes, Mooreag! There's been some discussion between me, Twertsy, and a few others as to whether they actually existed. I've been putting my set together for a lot of years and have never run across one before. Now I'm wondering whether there was ever a civilian...

You have ARRIVED! :^)

Nope.

Bump

"Assembled with bearing grease, everything's moving fine, all ready. Matches my windows which I painted last week. I need another bench now, this one is too small for this 19.1kg piece" Nice job! :beer:

Re: ~ Plomb tool picture thread - show your stuff! Yeah,man... That was a Great score! :beer:

Re: ~ Plomb tool picture thread - show your stuff! What a great score, Drives! Um, okay, I confess... I'm envious!
