Very nice shop, indeed. But, as the others have already pointed out, your shop is almost too clean. It must be a pleasure to work in!

Very nice, and well kept. That black colored artifact behind and to the left of your Mazak, Is that the Birch planer? It looks like interesting old iron.
Gotta love the Colchester Student. I'm repairing a Triumph at the moment (unfortunately not for me, but at least I get to use the one I'm fixing whenever I want).
The workshop that it is in is nowhere near as clean as yours.

The machine near the the mazak lathe is a Birch planer circa 1880 odd
i think}. To my limited knowledge there is only 3 left in the world.
Should get it all together this winter. the machine is complete and in good nick.


The student colchester now has a belt drive on the spindle as the gear box was driving me crazy.

i drive the lead screw with a variable speed dc motor. Have attached a couple pics of the planer.



THANKS FOR ALL THE KIND REMARKS.

I'm curious to know how many of the contemporary "CNC" machines made with MDF scraps and a Dremel will be still at work after 134 years.
