In these next (6) photos it shows making (4) 1/2-12 jam nuts. Started by turning the round stock and then milling the hex in an indexing head. Chucked it back in the lathe, drilled and tapped the hole and then with a parting tool sliced off the nuts. The last photo shows the completed (4) nuts...

In the following (14) photos you can see the boring of a Fairbanks Morse 5 HP N cylinder. The photos show everything from setting the cylinder up, indicating the cylinder to get the machine spindle on center, the actual boring, and then the honing of the cylinder. The are a few photos that also show making (2) stand-offs for the boring bar support bearing. This really helps to stabilize the boring bar for the entire length of the cylinder. The Fairbanks Morse N cylinder came out real nice...

These (3) photos are of honing a 10 HP Bessemer cylinder that had a few problems. The bore was cleaned up and then a new old stock piston casting was machined up to fit the new bore. Check below for the machining of the piston and fitting the rings...
11/24/03
Here in these next (9) photos a friend of mine came over to the shop with a sideshaft from a Ruston Hornsby and the intake and exhaust valve chests from his 35 HP Black Bear. The first few photos show repairing the end of the Ruston Hornsby sideshaft buy cutting off the bad section at the shoulder and then boring a hole to press in the new portion of the sideshaft. On the Black Bear valve chests, we took out each valve and lapped them in to get a better seal. When trying to start the engine we were getting a little leaking by the valve...

These (9) photos show the machining of the 10 HP Bessemer piston for the above cylinder. You can see the machining of the piston diameter, laying out and roughing in the ring grooves, and then acurately custom machining the width of each ring groove to fit the new old stock rings that all (4) of them were different widths. Also you can see how I cleaned up each rings on the lapping table. Also in one of the photos, notice the air being used to keep the chips out of the ring groove...

In these next (3) photos you can see an electrical panel that my friend Ron Polle is building for a Lister generator set he has built. Ron laid out all the holes for the gages and the DC/pot and we drilled them on the large drill press. In the last photo you can see what the panel box is going to look like...
01/02/04
These next (3) photos are of machining a 15 HP Evans piston to a diameter of 10.152. I had the piston metalized to build it up and then machined the OD to the above size. Also I trued up the ring grooves...
01/04/04
Here you can see I have started machining up (4) castings I had made for Buffalo Olin ignitors. These are for the small Buffalo Olins, 2 1/4 HP and 4 HP engines. They are machining up real nice...
01/16/04
In the first photo, I decided to make a small fixture to mount the ignitor casting to so some of the machining and hole drilling can be completed. Photo #1 shows the fixture being squared up on the shaper. The next (3) photos show the fixture in action during the drilling, reaming, countersinking, and spot facing...
01/24/04
These (2) photos are of a 7 HP Thermoil piston that I have had metal sprayed and am turning down the diameter. If you look close in the first photo you can see the thickness of the new material. The second photo shows the piston turned around in the lathe and the OD being turned. Next will be to true up the piston ring grooves...
