    Random Projects

    Going through some old pictures on the computer today and found a few photos...I always enjoy seeing what others have been working on, so figured I'd post a few of the projects that I have pictures from.

    "Cross Box" for a David Brown tractor restoration - batteries go in each end compartment, toolbox under the seat, and the flat part with the 8 holes is where the seat sits - the holes give some fore-aft adjustment for the seat position.

    New lift arm mechanism for cultivator - the old ones were bend and the geometry didn't give the cylinders enough power to lift the wings after the rolling baskets had been installed:

    WOW!!! AWESOME work, for sure!!!

    How do you cut the mounts for the buckets? I do bucket repairs, but not enough to afford a plasma table. But I like to do the highest quality work I can. Keep the pics comin

    Thanks. I lucked out a couple years ago and found a used PlasmaCAM DHC2 for sale locally. I don't know if I'd have been able to get into a CNC setup if it wasn't for finding the deal that I did. I have a Hypertherm PM85 on it, and I built a mount for a Victor 310 machine torch that I run oxy-propane for squareness of cut in the heavy plate. It's the oxy-propane that I used to cut the bucket mounts.

    Some 1-1/2" plate that I was notching today for quick attach mods on a Terex loader. This is about as thick as I can fit on the table before gantry clearance becomes an issue.



    I built a custom grate system with a removable section so I can cut up to 6x10 tubing...saved myself a lot of drilling on different projects by doing that.
