GRINDING MACHINE

Dismantling and cleaning.

Spindle house with bronze bearings. not a pretty sight at the moment.

A lot of parts even for a small machine.

Machine base empty.

Machine green, my favorite color.

Lots of small parts that had to be painted, and this is not all of them.

Rebuilding the main fixture and later gluing in a new cast iron sleeve.

This shaft was very worn. I turned it down and heat-shrunk in a new tube. This was then turned down to the right size.

Starting to look good. The main shaft seems to run good in the bearings.

Look at those diamonds, thank you Rüdiger.

Thank you. I only use oil and it is the same oil as the cutting oil. Good luck with your machine.

Hy, Very nice restoration of your sharp agathon, I'm restoring the same model. What do you use oil? or fat? for the slide bar and toolholder?best regards Olivie
