moving

I had a chance to use a set of these Roll-a-lift dolly's. WOW. Made it almost effortless to move my almost 2700 pound lathe, while keeping the bottom just off the floor. I wish I would have had access to these before I tipped my lathe!

It's been a while since I've posted anything. Frankly been to busy to, moved and been working hard to get everything built up and in it's place. Well, it's been a lot of work in a short timeframe. Poured the floor, got the walls insulated and drywalled, finally rolled everything in, in about a...

I have a very short-notice opportunity to get a Bolton AT750 for next to nothing, but I have to pick it up in two days, and may have just myself and an older friend to move it. I looked at the parts breakdown, and I'm guessing disassembly is the way to go; a practical question to any AT750...

Well, sort of... A few weeks ago, when I was making preparations to move my newly acquired Mill from the dealer to my newly forming machine shop, I figured I would troll Craigslist and see if there were any good deals on other machines. After all, if I was renting a truck I might as well fill...

I continue the story of the RB-1 mill from Here. I figured I would start a new thread on this as it is a new phase of the project. It took the better part of two days to get the mill and the grinder into the basement, now to reassemble them... The problem is, the ceiling is too low to rig the...
