Part of the master plan has been to do away with my old trusty tool trolly that holds a mile of tooling etc for lathe work.
It takes up room and even tho it is mobile, with the chucks and tooling as well as stock on the back side it is fucking heavy and a pain to move other than when it is really needed so to move machinery around workshop. Long weekend spending some nights in the shed with a few cold drinks and the odd cupa I have almost finished the mods to the lathe to take some of the load. The hard part with anything like this is never to forget work flow. It took awhile and some head sratching but I think this is a good comperise.

Just out of curiosity mate are you planning on sealing the edges of the ply ? I'm just thinking it may absorb coolant/ cutting fluid is all....
Looks good though.
mate i try not to use that much coolent in the first place, its horid stuff at the best of times...
the whole thing cost nothing ( ply was was picked of a pallet of off cuts ) and really it is just slaped together. It took longer to work out how to put stuff for ease of use than it did building. So really at the end of the day by the time it is fucked Ill be a old man or have a better way of doing it.... So short answer I couldnt be fucked, if it rots it rots
Fairy nuff.
Looks sweet Lynton
Same plan diffrent spot

Even the smallest things can make like a shit load better
in a work space. 1/4 hr and some scrap I finally got around
to building a third hand. There is no set way to make then as
long as they do two things. Holding pieces in place is the really
handy bit but it's a really cool earth if built right. It seens unlikely
but plate dosnt always pervide a clean earth. This one has a brass
base and silver solder on the tip so it provides a clean earth and no
marks on the job or the bench.

Have you got a Rolf Harris wobble board in your shed? and whats the weather doing down your way ?
you surpling the girls davo lol
weather is fine so far mate
Well in anougher case of it's not but who you know.
I had word out of need for a big piece of plate (2400x900).
I need a piece that big for the lift jig table.
While this isn't big enough for that it still is fucking 25mm t1 plate.
So when asked still want it, well only one answer to give.
Shane and I trotted off to and picked this out dirt where it had been left in
for the last god knows how many yrs. A bit of tlc I think it came up great.
It will become a fixed jig table. I now just have to work out how to drill
all the fucking taped holes in it lol
