Re: Texas Booty rebuild pictures
OK, pictures.
First, I didn't want to molest this machine very much as I am just the second owner of her. Dawn's father apparently lubed the machine with oil and all of the cast iron was just saturated with oil and sawdust. I have to admit, that the machine was very preserved, so oil as a lube is not all that bad. Anyway, I steam cleaned the cast and Aluminum parts then put an etching primer on. After that was dry for a day or so, I painted just about everything with the old Verde Green Hammered (I still had a case of it left). I then over coated with the gold metallic trying to get the hammered look with a non hammered paint. Worked fairly well. This is not a "rebuild" thread, there are a hundred of those here. Go see MickyD's threads for detail rebuild instructions, didn't think we needed another one ... LOL The bearing were all perfect and I just polished the tubs and the table rods (see pictures). I did acquire a Speed changer (bought yet another 51 10ER for the SC and I got a set of retractable casters for her from Skou. AND, before some of you eagle eyes find the belts fiasco on the SC, those were just staged as I had some belts coming from Skip, but didn't have them yet. The SC works perfectly!
I will post more pictures tomorrow ....
The Bench boards I lightly jointed and then just took enough off with the planer to reveal the wood again .... Table rod polishing jig If you have any questions, fire away ....

No questions, just a statement: great job!

Re: Texas Booty rebuild pictures
Wow, Dick. What a gorgeous lady. Downright sexy. As Al said, "Great job".

Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them.

Re: Texas Booty rebuild pictures
Thanks all! As many of you who have done it, it is a labor of love. I have one more to do. That will give me five ShopSmiths .... what am I thinking!?!

A you have some of the most coveted machinery aroundrjent wrote:Thanks all! As many of you who have done it, it is a labor of love. I have one more to do. That will give me five ShopSmiths .... what am I thinking!?!
B you made them into show pieces and workable again
C you enjoyed doing that, even though, I just clean them up and use them and put them to bed wet
C as Skou/Steve sez, "They dont print them any more"
Hopefully they will be with are children/grand children for another 40-50 years
