No, BTFabrication first mentioned gun drills in the sense of being extremely expensive.

Pete - OP said

My 35 yr old import mag drill will certainly drill 7 - 8” deep with one reposition of the drill motor in the T_slot carrier. One of the reason I bought an import at the time. But it can be a factor...

You can plane them both at the same time with good cutting oil & sharp tool. This is an auxilliary table made & planed for one of my table saws with a slider section.

FWIW...

Just o.ut of curiosity since I have no personal experience-

Given that sailboats have a lot of added mass down low anyway, is there reason to not make the log out of thinner wall stainless tube?

I tend to agree with the sentiments expressed by regulars here regarding lazy/poor presentation by the OP that might also best be Posted in the FS forum.

My language is seldom exemplary.
However,...

That’s a, ahem, cool idea!

I’d try it.

Easy to practice on scrap.

Well if the cranks are not breaking & he likes A2 that’s good.
Agree about lube issues, though.
Hudson is a good source for S7 if that is preferred. They used to sell drops but agree it is a bit...

Do you know for sure the original shop was using a long arbor as sketched or is that your suggestion?
I wonder if they were actually using something like an Aeon projection tool for the saw. (And...

It takes a relatively large wheel to hold thread profile for any thread length.
As has been stated, will likely require rough & finish pass(es) so will need dressed at least once. IOW no way...

The disconnects look oldish, but I think the machines are newer than Ww2.

Doug-

A little more to the story:
I saw one of Brzostek’s auctions that was a junk/consignment store in Syracuse with some obscure pictures of the machines & no description. The way they were...

A few years ago I bought a couple Burgy double aughts because I do a lot of c—drill, tap drill, tap, chamfer ops. Ended up never using because I realized the other critical part was that the drill...

Richard-

Infeed, thick urethane rolls ~70 duro A give a reasonable compliance for varying thickness boards at the same time if the machine was not offered or equipped with sectional infeed roll. ...

Not going to recommend the planers I put them in....

However 30 yrs ago I cast a set of urethane infeed & outfeed rolls for my 20” planer and have been pleased with them ever since. I cast...

In the very early 70’s an “elderly” :) machinist had allowed me to befriend him (Pete Raun, his nephew used to post on here). He told me they should be faced and then bored round on a Tobin arp...

The 250 rods were certainly the pin in that grenade. I’ve never been clear how much the trident rods were changed, if they were? During the 70’s Brit bikes primarily Triumphs were a big part of my...

I want to like Northfield and would probably buy some models if cheap at auction.

However their 2 screw tippy - table single surface planers are just plain archaic. Many, many versions of that...

Sounds like “traditional” fabrics & some form of white/yellow glues work fine.
Any fabric is probably going to be better than original paper back.
