Hi all! I've been enjoying everyone's posts for years now, and I've finally decided to crawl out from my rock and share my latest goal achievement.
For the longest time I've wanted my own shop, and while I have a ways to go...I finally have one of my dream pieces of equipment. Fully functional, fully restored.
Time to start crafting!

Grew up with a belt driven Drummond from 1907 ish. Very nice kit play well

Awesome belt repair.

Still using one of the original belts at the moment, but it came with replacements...from the 50s

And oh!! That's how you make these old belts. You cut the leather to size and tie them together with metal pins.

Nice man hands.

Its actually funny you say that...when I used to work logging, the guys called me "man hands" bc they are tiny, girly artist hands. ?

They don’t look tiny and girly at all. I’m a fan of nice male hands. Plz send pics of hands. : )

Great little machine. I have a 10x36 version with the gearbox. Keep an eye on the spindle bearing preload as well as 1/

The nut on the spindle that sets the axial load.
