Still working on getting the machine back together. Painting is coming along nicely, but slow due to work and misc. Should be able to begin wiring in 3-4 weeks as all major items will be done by then.
1) Rebuilt the transmission (Awaiting install)
2) All heavy components including machine bed have been installed.
3) Painted multiple parts
4) Began running new air lines and any needed oil lines.
5) Awaiting new spindle motor bearings, so rebuild of motor can begin. (Currently disassembled, just awaiting bearings)
I sometimes think that I should have just cleaned it up and put it to work. I would have regretted not doing it as I have found many items needing repaired/replaced. I guess it would have eventually happened anyway.
Next post will include picture updates as I am slacking on them right now. Just want to update the thread if anyone was wonder if the project was still alive.
