Restoring a 1940s Craftsman Drill Press – Part 1
I was given this 1940s Craftsman Drill Press (103.0303) by someone on one of the local FB community pages. It was missing some parts, but I figured I could find them or make what was missing. In this first part of this new series, I figure out how to disassemble the machine to identify what parts I need to source.

K&T Coolant Lines and Parking Attachment Install
I plumbed the coolant/cutting oil lines and installed the parking attachment on the 2HL. I also moved the head over to the parking attachment for now.

I became a member of the Midwest Railway Preservation Society this weekend
I became a member of the Midwest Railway Preservation Society this weekend as a volunteer. Looking forward to helping out with restoration projects like the 4070 steam engine built in 1918. Will be expanding my welding and machining skills for sure.

Making a tool for #roughcut2022
This my contribution to this year’s video challenge, #roughcut2022. I have been wanting to make a simple fly cutter for a while, so I grabbed some scrap off the shelf and made one. I had fun making it. But I think the shaper may be a bit faster and gives me a better finish. Perhaps I am a little rough on this new tool. 😉
