I took a drive and spent the weekend helping Tom at Hilltop Machine Works clean up a little after the fire, some new stickers came in, a quick “hey man” job, plus a few small aquisitions.

Now that the table is on the knee again, I turn my attention to making some stops, or trip dogs, for the power feeds.

With the left side lead screw bracket in place, time to turn my attention to the right side where the bearings are. I also get the coolant return components buttoned up.

With the table and gib on the saddle, it’s time to button up each end. However, I am missing a couple parts for the crank end of the table. And in an effort to bring the machine back to the way it was originally, I need to make a couple parts for it.

With the feed distribution unit and the saddle installed, I can start to get the table installed, but not before making some minor repairs.

I used instructions I got from @mrpete222’s YouTube channel to make this knee crank adapter.

I got my hands on the new PrimeWeld MIG 285 welding machine. In this video, I take it out of the box and run a few welds in both MIG, Flux Core as well as a little stick welding. These are my first impressions and opinions. I tried to get it shorter, but wanted to make sure I covered as much as I could and get a few arc shots. And I still couldn’t get it all in.
