I want to get the headstock of the 1960 South Bend lathe disassembled so I can inspect the bearings and any gears.

I finish the reassembly of the Universal Milling Head for the Kearney and Trecker 2HL. I make a few mistakes, mostly minor, along the way, but I did manage to address them all in the end.

With as much repair work as I am able to do completed on the Kearney & Trecker Universal Milling Head, it’s time to start putting this back together. I’m starting with the Attachment Housing and the Swivel Support Bracket.

I have been having an issue my Hobart 175 amp MIG welder for a few years. I was getting a lot of porosity in my welds and I could never figure out why. I have only been able to use flux core in it. I want to get this problem sorted out and fixed, and to do that, I had to machine a part that is obsolete and not available.

I have a few more details to take care of with the bed. I also tackly disassembly of the motor housing, counter shaft and drive pulley, including the removal of a very stubborn taper pin.
