Possibly but I wanted to have the casters a little further out for stability. Shouldn't really be anyone walking around it.

My folks picked this up for me in Anchorage today. $40 CL

Nice find for 40 bucks, especially up there.

I bet you use the hell out of the mill.

Well I'm definitely a poor machinist. Hoping to get better with some practise.

Have any pics of the shop floor 'pre concrete", with the tube grids and anchors?

Do you need pictures of water lines in the floor before concrete? Let me know if you do - I don't want to hijack Les' thread, but I took photos of dad's when we did it and can hunt them up if you need to see what we did.

My project for today. I already had the base but had to rework it to fit size wise. I have one more base and two more bolt bins so I'll be making one more sometime. I'll have one for sae coarse/fine and eventually one for metric as well.

 

[Burning oil]

That'll be nice.

I know you use your phone a lot to post. Do you think it helpful to yourself and others on phones if the image is at full size in the post? Its one less click that way. I know I like to see them full size, but Im always on a PC.

don't know how to make them full size

 

[ak diesel driver]

Aha! Figured it out.

 

[Will L.]

Never thought of roll around bolt bins. I always just pick a wall for consumables.

 

[Burning oil]

Thats better IMO.

Sure, use a PM if you want, thanks.

Les finds some killer deals on good tools. Around here people on CL want retail for Harbor freight junk, lol

(P.S. If you wanna double your money on the cam bearing tool LMK.. )

 

[ak diesel driver]

Last can bearing tool I saw on CL was $180 IIRC.
