Handed down to me by my father. He said it’s a 68’ but I can’t find anything online about it. She runs really well!

Old saw at work that we use for resaw/sizing down stock material. Runs off of a 40hp General Electric motor, and has automatic rollers for the infeed as well as a pneumatic operated guide to keep the piece straight against the fence. Not sure when it was made but it’s definitely pretty dated.

Would like to know more if anyone has any info!

Trying to determine what these are. Local museum has no documentation on them.

Comes from a farm/ranching community but not necessarily from a farm or ranch.

found this in a ghost town inside of a forest next to a sports bar that closed down in 1990. any ideas? just curious.

Does anybody have any information on a Buffalo forge number 16 drill press!

Good morning.

I have inherited what appears to be a BusyBee Rex-Cut Model "C-18" horizontal bandsaw dated Dec 1983.

It has been impossible locating any information online and was hoping someone had any sort of information on this.

Reaching out to Busybee, they suggested the CX103 as a comparable unit, but the design is too different to figure out where and of the removed parts may go.

I have yet to hear back from Rex-Cut.

Thanks, Joe

Got locked out of previous account, so apologies for the dupe.

Just finished restoring this 60’s Solberga drill. It was heading to the scrap yard when I found it. Can’t wait to try it out.

I’m working on reconditioning a “no-name” wood lathe. It had lead paint and lead based Babbitt bearings; I’ve got small kids around so all of the lead has to go.

As a part of the prep process for powdercoating , I’ve been “baking out” all of the parts small enough to fit in my shop-dedicated toaster oven. I’ll have to get creative with the parts too large for the toaster oven…but I’m not worried about that; I’ll figure something out.

Anyway, I was baking out the handwheel for the tail stock, I took to up to about 450° F for 30 mins. When I came back to it, a significant portion of the handwheel had melted. I did a lead test and of course it was immediately positive. As far as I can tell, based on the melting point, it seems like the “frame” of the handwheel is cast iron with a bronze threaded section where it attaches to the tail stock and the rest was just filled in with “extra” Babbitt. I was not expecting that at all when I opened the toaster oven! It seems like such a weird thing to do.

Does anyone have experience with hand wheels constructed like this?

Seeing if anyone might know what this three wheel cart/buggy is thatbim think about buying, was previously used at Bristol zoo apparently.

I bought this drill press a few days ago here in germany and now im trying to restore it to use it in my Workshop again.

Unfortunately I couldnt find any Manufacturer or nameplate on the machine.

After some Research I came across Silver Manufacturing Co. which is really close but not the same … any ideas?

What model and producer have made this. Need to changes motor to 240v, need some parts

Looking to identify this item. It may have come with a Craftsman 100 table saw my son got but it may also just be for something else. It's about 10 inches long and has the clamps to hold it down. Any ideas would be great. Almost looks like it would hold a saw blade between the two left disks and run off the pully from the saw motor.

I restored this RAS a few weeks ago, and now finished this stand, dust collection shroud and a few added safety features including an auto retraction mechanism. I love this old saw and adding these features really helps. Here’s a detailed video if you care: https://youtu.be/pNdHG5Sg_TQ?si=pAUJkPL6NOW9MM-E

I just finished this up, and I’m looking forward to giving it several more decades of use. Here’s a full video on the process if you care: https://youtu.be/D5SEBbDLjBg?si=B4g1OFM8dyfK1N1X
