Finally got around to registering myself on this thing. I'll post a few pictures on some of the equipment that's been restored for the machine shop as soon as I find my camera again (probably under the pile of tax paperwork).

In the mean time, I found a website that's a goldmine of info for antique machine tool enthusiasts. They have some fantastic pictures os factories, shops, and equipment going back over 100 year (not to mention some great layout ideas for our shop)

WARNING - this is a very addictive site

Glad you're here Mark!

I have followed that link before, from another forum I am a member of, and it is indeed addicting!

:picture: of your work on the machine shop stuff! Taxes can wait!

Welcome aboard Mark. We look forward to a lot of active posts for the machine shop/foundry and maybe even some new members and or visitors for that section of the show.

Make Uncle Sam Happy and then post away.

Have fun.
