Today I acquired...........

I like the flat squares. They are not easy to find

Well i had them in my Amazon basket, but i got all four for 20 euros, which strikes me as a bargain...

I'm wondering if i can straighten up the big one with thé mill, not straighten, but perfect....

I don’t really know what they are...

The white thing might be an oxygen concentrator or perhaps oxygen generator. Older relation of this: https://www.cooksongold.com/Jewellery-Tools/Oxygen-Concentrator-HM5-5-Litre-prcode-999-7810

The torch looks oxy-fuel judging by the standard red and blue hoses. The gas looks either natural or LPG (check the regulator input pressure - natural is in the millibar range; LPG low bar range).

Flamefast (as the paper label) specialise in these things. See if you can Google some of the numbers or send a good picture to them and ask.

Yes, that was starting to drag on.

New thead coming soon, what do all these knobs do ?

RTFM Looks very good, much fun to be had there.

Go on then, @Hood , simple cnc conversion for dummies please.

Don't get too technical on me, it's day 1 with a mill, and I still don't know what all the bits do.

Obviously I'd need one of those 'pooter things to control it...

Baby steps, Mat, baby steps.

The plate squares are often made by Format or Helios Presser

The two stainless are marked 'Dela'.

Think I've got some verniers made by them, the tolerances are very good.

 

[Brad93]

I’ve got some of the Helios presser pipe squares and they’re bang on the money

Whilst i'm in a world of daft questions, what are these three dimples on the bottom of each one? Please.

No idea, perhaps fixturing from when they were ground

Well today I fitted the drawer inserts that have been made for me by @pcwizme. Fit perfect and exactly as my drawing. Bit of a shame I completely forgot about the ER32 collets

Not to worry, I will redraw it. Again.

Look very smart:




This one needs to be re-made unfortunately, looks great right now though:

Probably identical to a Bridgeport, if so I scanned the manual years ago. I will have it here but likely available for download online as the Colchester Student one I scanned is widely shared online as well.
I could email but think it is quite large so likely won't send via most email clients.

Actually it is not too bad even though it was scanned years ago, I will see if it will attach here, should do as it is smaller than lots of images nowadays
