A Few Machines from my Workshop
#31
Hi Andrew , welcome to the forum, You have some seriously good machinery there, I would think you should be able to make more or less anything you want Big Grin
That was lucky about the three phase, It must be nice just to plug something in and it works lol, that furnace will make the meter wizz around I bet. Thanks for posting

I am SO envious of that! I have 14Kv 3-phase on poles passing by the front line of my mothers home, which is where my shop is for at least another year or three. The power company here is private, not government, and they take ages to send out an engineer. You can't get the three phase power until their engineer decides which transformer YOU have to pay for, and then I'd also be paying for all the work to bring it the 70 feet to the shop, and it would run on it's own meter.

You have an "awaiting projects shed"? WorthyWorthyWorthy

Most of mine are either in my head or on a shelf in the corner of my shop.

Sadly yes Tom !

It's an extension to my 'welding shop / dirty workshop' that I put up a couple of years ago specifically to house my foundry. Built from RSJ's and fibre reinforced cement sheet there is nothing in the construction that will burn. However almost as soon as it was finished there was a bit of a panic over lambing, and we needed more room to bring some ewes under cover, so all the stuff that I had stored in the lambing shed got stuffed into the 'foundry' - since then I've started to sort it out and transfer the less delicate stuff into a 40' container that I have down by the pigs but that's a task that remains unfinished !
