Troyke 12″ Rotary Table with Servo Power Feed – Assembly
I came across this 12″ Troyke rotary table at an online auction. But the photos didn’t show what size it was, I was hoping it was a 10″, so I bid on it anyway. Well, it’s a 12″, which is just a bit too big for my mill, and a bit too heavy for me to handle by myself. So I am just going to clean it up and pass it on to its next steward and any profit gained will go back into other shop restoration projects.
The Servo 150 power feed and adapter is pretty cool.

I need a bigger bad saw.
Troyke 12″ Rotary Table with Servo Power Feed – Disassembly

The Servo 150 power feed and adapter is pretty cool. I am tempted to take it off this and put it on the Bridgeport Y axis.

How to spend THOUSANDS of dollars to throw something away! 😂
I’ll be getting back to the regular machine shop/Jeep videos this Sunday. But this is just a short video of the mess we had to clean up after a big storm that went through NE Ohio. Power was out for som 800,000 households, 65,000 in my county alone, which is about half the total households. We were blessed that we had power, but we were offline for 5 days – it’s amazing how much we rely on the internet and how much you realize that when it’s unavailable.
This big tree was in our front yard and was damaged in the storm. It took a crew of seven men over 3 hours to safely take this tree down. It was expensive, as much as it would cost to buy a fully refurbished and well tooled South Bend Heavy 10″ Lathe. 😭 It’s a set back, for sure, but feel blessed that the house was unscathed and nobody was hurt.

No machining video this week. 😢
I am not able to upload a machining video this week. We had a bad storm come though my area that knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of households as well as knocking out internet service. We are all safe and although we have had power, we have been without internet for the past 5 days so I don’t have a practical way of getting a full length video uploaded.
My wife and I, being part of the work from home economy, not having internet has made it impossible for us to “go to work.” I’m able to make arrangements but my wife is out of luck until our service is restored.
Topping all that is this massive tree in our front yard has been damaged beyond being able to be save. Thankfully, it did not hit the house. Unfortunately, since it didn’t hit the house, removal is not covered under insurance. So I have to let go of some projects I wanted to tackle.
I had recently acquired a 1960s South Bend 13” lathe with a 7 foot bed. I was going to record a quick restoration video and then rehome it. Unfortunately, I have to unload it sooner rather than later. If you’re interested, hit me up at greg@mylilmule.us. I’d even be willing to deliver it within 100 miles of Lake County, Ohio.
Hopefully, my internet will be restored soon and we can get back to real content.
Making a Ball Hitch for a Lawn Tractor
Not my usual kind of video, but my channel has always been, what I did, is what I record. And this week, I needed to make a ball hitch for my lawn tractor to move a log splitter around my backyard. I was able to fire up my PrimeWeld MIG 180 again, something I haven’t had a chance to do in a while.
