Can you see my skin color turning green? Lol. Looks like all new equipment, like you're outfitting a business venture!

you can't turn down crazy good deals on machines and tooling can you?

That's usually how I end up with some of the things I bring home. Just can't stand seeing something go to waste.

To many pieces of new equipment at one time is a violation of the hobby machinist code. Lol.

Looks like nice stuff. I'm sure you'll put it to good use.

here's a jig i made for accurate drilling of bike crank arms when i want to shorten them for some of bikes i am planning on building.
will prob get shorter centre pce but used what i had.
it's made from 50x50x5 ali angle.
only hole i made sure was cock-on was centre one, then marked out spacings and marked line across.
took it up to model eng club and got someone to show me how to set up miller with centredrill instead of cutter.
after checking everything was square just set it up on centre hole and moved bed to each line and centre drilled each hole, after which i drilled through.
