It's an Exciting Day for a Long Time

I've been willing to get a Bridgeport, which is a very large and heavy-duty mill, and I've got one on the way today. We've also got a metal lathe coming, so the problem is that we don't have a place to put them. We have a bunch of space here filled up by storage and kind of random things, so before those show up here in about an hour, we've got to clean out the big section and then we've got to figure out how to unload those and get them in here so you can work.

The Bridgeport Problem

I'm thinking that the Bridgeport will clear this space. We know this was a concern, as it has a head roll down, and so it ends up being like this. If it goes here, this is what I was thinking about originally, and so this would be enough clearance, I think. It's 72 inches, so I think we're good either way.

Cleaning Up the Space

The lathe can be brought in and just dumped in the middle for now. It's not a ton, but that's okay. The Bridgeport is a literal ton, and there's enough concrete to support it. However, I was using no pallet jack because he didn't have one. Instead, we're going to use an engine hoist that comes with the shop tool.

Clearing the Path

We need to clear a path here so we can take out all the bikes. But we can also fold the bike holders against the wall or up to get them out of the way. I did this on purpose and made a video about it, as well as sharing why it's in that spot.

The Garage is Almost Ready

I'm going to fit in the garage to slip 24 all right guys. We'll see how that goes. The wheels are actually stuck after a couple hours of unloading. Big thanks to Chris for doing the majority of the work, which is part of why I was one to buy these from that particular guy because he knows how to safely load them and unload them.

He delivered them, and he's a really nice guy. The machines are working, they're not powered yet, so that's the next step. We need to add some plugs, some wiring, and then we should actually be able to turn them on and test them out.

Learning About New Tools

This is a J-head Bridgeport, which I don't know a whole lot about yet, so I've got a lot to learn. That's that. This is a South Bend metal lathe; it's a heavy ten, I think it's called, and I really don't know much about this but it was a good deal to get this and the Bridgeport at the same time.

Learning About New Tools (Continued)

So now I've got this to learn about, and just to show you all these boxes of stuff. Tons of other things came with it, there's tons of mills and turning things, and I had to go through all the boxes to learn out what it is. But like I said first step wiring power lady do something dramatic.

Test Number One

I have a meeting ah I get dragged all right test number one turn the breaker on ready go and on the sparks okay now I'm gonna check the circuit just scares me to death it's a metal box with a bunch of wires in it ground forward ready yeah oh it's not plugged in. Okay, I was like that's awfully bags of cord you got there more ready.

The Bearings Are in Pretty Bad Shape

The bearings are in pretty bad shape so that's a thing that can easily be replaced and it'll be quieter hey it works that's cool Hart we're gonna go for a reverse it works ready hands. I wasn't planning on it but now I want to make sure that that thing works too because it won't take long.

The Fuse Box

This is the fuse box for the back of the South Bend lathe, it's very mechanical it's terrifying good grief it works but man that was scary Wow it calms down a little bit and so then when you turn this and put it down and engages the belt scared to do but and flinging oil cool they work that's awesome now they're just super dirty.

The Final Steps

I guess the only thing left now is to figure out what every single one of these things and all these boxes clean every inch of both of these tools learn how to use them, and also completely take out all of this stuff and all of that stuff. That's it, really simple yeah super easy it's a nice one

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enI don't know it's not gonna like rattle we'll put some EBA form under New York it's an exciting day for a long time I've been willing to get a Bridgeport which is a

here so you can work so what I'm thinking is Bridgeport it will clear this we know this was a concern the head rolls down and so it ends up being like this halt down yeah if it goes here this is what I was thinking about originally and so this would be enough clearance I think with it all the way up it's 72 so I think we're good either way this was clean at one point both of these things went on 220 but they're single-phase okay that's good the lathe can be brought in and just dumped in the middle before if it needs to be for now but it's not a ton the Bridgeport is a literal ton is there enough concrete to support sure okay I mean this house foundation does he have a pallet jack because I was using no he is a engine hoist this comes with the shop tool I think it's kind of cool is that we need to clear a path here so we can take out all the bikes but we can also fold the bike holders against the wall or up to get them out of the way now Bob I did that on purpose and made a video about it I know why this is here you oh okay that lazy nice big old better up until Vietnam where things that cost like half a house very expensive and here we are home hobby guys yeah we can get em first off pretty cool boy I'm gonna fit in the garage to slip 24 all right guys we'll see that the wheels are actually stuck after a couple hours of unloading we got these machines in here big thanks to Chris for doing the majority of the work which is part of why I was one to buy these from that particular guys because he knows how to safely load them and unload them he delivered them it's awesome he's a really nice guy the machines are working they are in place they're not powered so that's one of the things we got to do next gotta add some plugs some wiring and then we should actually be able to turn them on and test them out just to let you know this is a J head Bridgeport honestly don't know a whole lot about it yet so I've got a lot to learn that's that this is a South Bend
