Hi Everyone,
I am Charles from Ottawa and I have a small hobby shop in my garage. All of this started about 10 years ago when I bought a Maho MH400C that end-up having a bad spindle bearing and broken vertical head casting. To this day, I am still slowly acquiring more tool and expertise to be able, one day, to finally fix it.
Here is my a picture of my workshop:
Graziano SAG12
Very nice machine in pretty bad shape
About 13"x30"
Taper Attachment
Chinese SINO DRO, 1um scales
Chinese 40 position toolpost
Transmission replace with 3ph motor and VFD
Missing Steady-Rest and Follow Rest
Was dropped and repainted before I got it, I am still slowly rebuilding it.
Excello 602
9"x42" table
Beautiful machine in pristine condition
Missing spline shaft and coupler gear for power feed
Maho MH400C
Never ending project
Vertical Head (with bad bearings)
Horizontal Support Arm
4 axis rotary table
Electronic and Servo replaced (LinuxCNC)
Other Tools
Dake #3 Arbor Press
7.5HP Regenerative Blower Vacuum
Dewalt Air Compressor
10 HP Phase Converter
15 KVA 240/600 Transformer
Everlast PowerTIG 210EXT Welder
18"x24"x4" Surface Plate of unknown grade
Mahr 1240 Amplifier and LVDT Probes
Sunnen Bore Gages and Setting Fixture
Dumore Toolpost Grinder
Mars 2 SLA 3D Printer
I3 Clone FDM 3D Printer
Some electronic equipment (Multimeter, Oscilloscope, Power Supply, Reflow Oven, ...)
One really patient wife
I got some of those tool for very cheap at auction and paid good money for other. I am always looking for a good deal and always willing to trade what I currently have. I am currently looking to add a nice surface grinder to my collection.
Those days, I am mostly interested in metrology and high precision work. I am interested in meeting other hobbyist in the region in person, send me a message.
