Hello, first time member here, long time info scavenger. I joined the great minds here with great trepidation, as I am not a machinist., but just a dairy farmer who does his own repairs but who also has a passion for building/restoring tools, or building equipment from scratch using assorted crap. My latest winter project is a 1903 12" hendey I "rescued" from a farm auction. Almost done, and no, it is not as bright red as the camera flash makes it out to be! Now, I need to find some gears [tall order I know,] or have them made. I have the half nuts figured out and think I can make the holder out of steel and fasten a bronze nut to it. Thanks everyone for making this a great site for guys like me and I hope I can contribute something useful once in a while too.
