I finished the last machine for the 1/16 machine shop.
I looked at several vintage pieces and decided on this.
All scratch built except the pulley, the "stones" those are Drexel polishing wheels the curved I beam is a leftover from my Oldsmobile build. Chuck Doan rendered it and I had it printed in brass.
Brass tube for the top part and aluminum for the column and base.

Been there, done that!  It's really an accomplishment, the belts really make a difference.

Wonderful job on the grinder Marty.

And the belts perfect!!

What a beautiful machine shop you've built.
