Refurbishing and modifying a Lincoln 225 AC Welder

I’ve had the Lincoln Electric “tombstone” stick welder for years with plans to clean it up and give it a paint job. I decided to make some improvements while I am at it.

Odds and Ends – Episode 8 – Shop Updates, Cabin Fever, and Climate Change

I’ve added some new tooling to the shop, mostly through auctions, but I did receive a viewer gift recently, too. I also took a trip to Cabin Fever Expo in Pennsylvania, visited with a couple of friends, and made the most significant change to the shop to date.

Refurbishing a Clipper 6″ Belt Lacer

The two South Bend Lathe’s I currently have in the shop, both use a laced leather belt to drive the spindle. I will be replacing both of them at some point. And although there are alternatives to using a laced belt, I prefer it over the others. This tool will come in handy in the shop.

Super excited to find this Union Tool Chest Works tool box on Facebook. Unfortun

Super excited to find this Union Tool Chest Works tool box on Facebook. Unfortunately, it is missing the front cover and needs a lot of TLC. I hope to have a new front cover made, but finding a lock for it might be difficult to impossible. Once I clean it up, I’ll decide if it needs to be refinished completely or only some new wax. I did some research and am confident this was made between 1916 and 1918!
