1911Man's new machine

admin

Ole' 1911man got his new HH175 yesterday. He doesn't have a digital camera (old dog new trick thing). So I thought I'd post some pictures for him.Here's the new machine mounted on a HF stand avobe his "Stickmate. I brought over a 125# bottle of C25 to use.He added bracing to the stand, but with the bottle and the 175 it's still kind of shacky.Lets all get together and embarras him into building a decent stand befitting the new machine Attached Images
Reply:Here he is in action. He built a real nice table with the Stickmate. We were outside of his garage. He has a big garage, but he is aspiring to have a"Magic Garage" and it's getting fuller. Attached ImagesLast edited by fla jim; 02-26-2004 at 03:18 AM.

Reply:Thanks Morpheus! I really like this machine and had a ball with it last night. I guess my first project with it will probably be a cart for it or fla Jim will just keep bustin my chops."All that is required for evil to triumph is that good men do nothing"
Reply:Just get some strap stock, weld it on and reenforce the cart you have now.  Make Jim suffer.Appreciation Gains You Recognition-
Reply:Great idea Franz but "she who must be obeyed" makes him suffer enough! heehee!"All that is required for evil to triumph is that good men do nothing"
Reply:He can always comizzerate with Dogzilla.  Come to think of it, mayhaps he already does, and that's why Dogzilla has those deep frown lines.Appreciation Gains You Recognition-
Reply:Dogzilla has frown lines now because he looked over my shoulder, and saw his "Grandpa" getting abuse
Reply:you lay down a nice beed, keep up the fun.
