Picked this old Do-All up from my old neighbor years ago, and finally got around to rebuilding all the mechanical parts, all new bearings and blade guides, hydrualics, etc. Vise was non functional, etc so had to make a bunch of stuff from scratch.
New pump and coolant system needs to be installed and it's basically done.
Using a C-Clamp to cut the material for the new vise parts, & mist coolant to get by.
Making lots of chips
New Vise, screw, etc. All bronze bushed.
I screwed up and ordered way to fine pitch of ACME thread so i ditched the hand wheel, i run the vise in with the battery impact instead for rapid travel
I'll do some further clean up now that i know this thing is fully functional and no major fixes to do.
