It seems that this site is slow to update or has simply ceased to add any content since the last contribution is dated October 2021, have the subscribers moved to another site?

It's a little slow, but not quite dead.? You could post a "real" question, if you have one, and folks who are otherwise busy would respond when they get a break. I have been working on a tank that will let me strip the rust off the restoration-project Heavy 10L I picked up a couple years ago. I need to seal the seams, and get it on a cart I can move around in my shop. I've been working on the house and other machines lately, instead of concentrating on the 10L. I got a cute little Unimat SL a week or so ago, been concentrating on that in my spare time. Needs the same sorts of work. There are advantages to a machine you can pick up with one hand, though. :) I was able to take that whole machine to class last week, and make new ways for it. It and all the accessories and parts/material I currently have fit handily in a 22" Husky toolbox. My 1-ton engine hoist is a bit light for the 10L, stripped. I don't know that I'd trust it with the whole lathe and its accessories.

Understood Bill, you’re a busy person, lots to do, the days are flying by these days, thanks for your update and clear explanation, my spare time is spent with helping our local Rotary club raise funds and helping our community get through these difficult days, my playtime is in the workshop, renovating anything, some for me, some for others, time is very precious.

The posts have been infrequent and I look forward to what others post. ?I haven’t had much to post - so I haven’t.

I would encourage all of us to share questions, excess equipment, parts, projects and anything of interest.

Lately I have been working on designs for swaging dies for the C&H and Corbin swaging presses.

If anyone has designs, ideas or comments, please post here!

There are three South Bend groups I'm a member of. Seems only the?/g/SouthBendLathe/messages?gets the traffic. Most of the posts there involve 9"ers. I have a few 9" and one 13" that's my go two.
