What Did You Buy Today?

You just got to believe Jraut.
Beautiful rotary table.
How you gonna move it?

Found this little 400-pound capacity lift kicking around Craigslist this weekend, so I snagged it up.

$60

It's either a Hoyer, or a Hoyer knock-off. Not sure, as there are no longer any tags on it. The guy I bought it from described it as a 'transmission hoist'.

Needed to top off the cylinder with some oil, but it works great! The mast comes off and it tucks nicely behind my Bridgeport.

I plan to use it to pick my new-to-me 170# rotary table. But I'm a bit fearful that it'll now act as an enabler for me to buy more heavy stuff.......

Honey grabbed some catalogs at the last auction, they were going to pitch them and told her to have at 'em.
Just unpacked them last night. Bit of a trip down memory lane.
There's also a Jergen's that I've already placed in my bookcase.

That's the size I needed for the vises and chucks instead of the big monster I picked up!

9+18 will never equal 30, what's the point? I would have a hard time with that too.

When I was in school, we had to solve the problem, then go back and estimate the answer as a way to check our selves. I think that is what they are after, but disagree that it should be done by itself. It was also with problems that were more then just simple addition.
 
14" Delta/Rockwell vertical metal/wood band saw. Series 28-200 -1977 looks like it is a Canadian production. The manual comes in English and French.
I've been looking for a while now.
The seller had a twin 6"X 42(48?) belt sander in excellent condition. They are more for wood, I have a Kalamazoo 2x42 but dang I was tempted. He wants $700 for it.

I remember ordering from Carr-Lane, Stock Drive Product, and Reid. Memories, indeed!
