Our 14 x 60 Mattison Surface Grinder S/N 24363 which we bought new in 1985 and it saw 2 shifts work for most of the past 25 years. Now it is ready for a re scrape and some other TLC. The last year or so holding size within .001" was not possible. So we have started the process to tear the machine down, regrind the table ways, scrape the bed ways flat then scrape them together. Of course along the way I am sure we will find a couple other issues and fix them as well. Normally we will do a complete clean of the oil lines and rebuild the table cylinders as well.
Most fun I had at IMTS yesterday was stopping by the Biax booth and having Matt there tell me I was only the second guy who was by the booth who had a clue about the scrapers, Richard King got there before me so of course he was #1.
I did some scraping and laid down a couple half moon patterns.
