    Nice to see another submarine veteran. There weren’t that many of us that were willing to volunteer for sub duty.

    This is the best part of RUclips, where the old masters get one last chance to share their expertise. Thanks for sharing, and best wishes on the restoration.

      Me, I want it out in my shop, it’s just an outbuilding but that’s where I do my fun stuff. Lol Besides, it’s easier to get in and out of.
      That would be a perfect size for a smaller home shop, and it’s going to be just like new.

    Ron has probably forgotten more about machine rebuilding than someone like me will ever learn. I wish I had a time machine so I could go back 20 years and start learning then!

    There are not a lot of horizontal mills around any more. Nothing better for saws. Just seems the old fellas like us have them. What a great post Keith. Not hard but time consuming for sure eh. After all are we not bang on as we should be ? I sure enjoyed this, great fella !

    I hope that beautiful little machine gets a job somewhere rather than mouldering in a museum. Or the museum is a teaching/making concern where the machine is actually put to good use. Your exceptional expertise is uncommon, and valued.

    I've learnt so much from these channels that i learn less each time. Exactly how it should be!
    But he just caught a gap in my learning. before fitting gibb strips they too need to be scraped flat.
    Damn dude your 82 and still deep in engineering, if I get to 82 I know that no matter my level I'll be into engineering one way or another. Besides I'm 41 and your 82 and the grim reaper ain't "ageist" at all. He could get me in 6 months and your still spritely for the next 11 years.

    Funny you brought this model machine up in your video, I actually have two of them! Got them out of a machine shop in Rochester NY and have had them for the last 5 or 6 years! The one I use quite often, but the other one just sits there beside the first! They both run, just do not use it! If you're interested in pictures or serial numbers, let me know! I would not part with the one I use, but if anyone is interested in the second one, I could be persuaded to part with it!
