I started out shopping for a mill last year and I looked at those also. I ended up going with a PM932-M from Quality Machine Tools, that I have been very happy with. It was a bit more than a $1,000 but I believe it was worth it. If you want to stay on the smaller end I would recommend looking...

Did you try blowing it out with compressed air?

Very nice build, great attention to detail. Is the tool rest all aluminum? I need to make one like that for my GIB.

Nice work, Bruce

Congrats Jason, That's a nice looking knife

I'm working on a slipjoint with double (top & bottom) bolsters. After several hours of eyeballing bolster alignment and gluing them on and then taking them off several times. I finally got them so the top and bottom bolsters are parallel and the bolsters on both liners are lined up with each...

What book are you working from? I'm trying my hand at a couple of slipjoints right now, but would like to try making a lockback down the road.

Turned out nice

Nice knife Calvin. I'm learning it does help to be a little nuts to make pocket knives or at least a little OCD.

Nice work, I like it. Once I get a few slipjoints under my belt, I'm to try and make a flipper. I really like the style of them.

Here is a link to a posting on another forum with quite a bit of info on pin or head spinning. I've spun heads on a couple of pockets knives I've rebuilt when using jigged bone or stag scales. I used a head spinner I bought from Jantz...

Very Nice!!!

Nice work!! I like the domed pins it gives it a classic look.

Sorry, by "gone" I thought you meant broken or wore out. Motion Ind still may be able to help you, give them a call. They will probably have you measure the width and depth of the pulley and then use a piece of string around the two pulleys to get an an approximate size. Years (and years) ago...

Nice work, Keith !!!

I made it back home by about 9:30 a.m. Saturday morning and had the surface grinder unloaded and setup on the stand by 12:30 p.m. This morning I clean and lubed it and got the "One Shot Lube System" back in operation. I ground one side of a piece of scrap steel I had and it worked pretty good...

I pretty pumped about the find I've been looking for a while and this is the first one I've found in a reasonable driving distance, the last one I seen like this was in Colorado. I'm in GA a little south of Atlanta. I used this search engine to find it http://www.searchtempest.com/. It's a...

I'm headed out in the morning to St. Petersburg, FL to pickup a surface grinder I found on Craigslist. It's an older 120 vac Central Machinery benchtop model with a magnetic chuck for $400. It's an 8 hour drive each way, but I think it's worth it, a new unit similar to this one from Enco without...

You may want to try taking your old belt into your locate Motion Industries location or Fastenal store they may be able to help you. If you do not have them local try to find someone that handles motors or industrial supplies in your area.
