What have you done in your shop lately?

Repurposed some electric motor mounts into tool holders on the backsplash of lathe. Used some super magnets (8mm) to temporarily hang the holders, while I test and position them.

Not sure if the new holders will be in the way or not yet...?

What sort of process to get a blank to a barrel, and how long does it normally take for one?

Looks like a ton of work completed!!
 
Finished a Baldor 1215W grinder conversion to a 12 inch buffer. Works great.

The blanks I get come in ready to chamber and contour. I do not start from solid bar of steel, barrel makers do the boring and cutting the rifling.
 
Love that Bota ! Lost power last night in at work . Rented a tractor trailer sized generator which wasn't working correctly so they are in process of bringing one down from New Jersey . Should be there around 1.30 so it's off to work once again for the 4rth time in 2 days . One of our transformers blew last night and put a crater in the ground . Exciting for sure .
 
That will get your attention.
