Le Sold Out.

Yep,…I had seen that too, so I went with the Klutch brand, …..same exact machine, just different paint……my neighbor is a retired Navy Machinist, and he took liberty to take may new machine and upgrade it to a finer standard…..he’s already improved the X & Y axis, and we ordered Timken bearings ( he’s bored, so he’s enjoying himself ) …….out of the box, we found a few inconsistencies with the machine, ….ugliest was the tower being off nearly a full degree…..that was just a matter of adjusting the pointer, but still, had I used it as is, the cuts would be a-skewed …..I should have it back by the end of the week,…I got the bearings last night, and ran them over to my buddy this morning,……all in all, it’s not a bad machine for the money, I like the steel table, and it’s true, so we’ll see when we begin clamping crap down and taking swipes at stuff……biggest job on my hit parade is the hogging out of the older Lionel Pulmors for Pittman swaps, so I’ll test the machine on one of my shells before daring to clamp somebody else’s mess up in there….😉…..I’ll report back when the switch gets turned on, and we’re making chips….
