The subtle tone difference in the walls and around the base totally compliment the masterful craftsmanship of the lathe. Cheers, Heath.

As far as metal shavings, I have been saving them as I worked on the machinery. I haven't put them down yet because I might come up with a few more details and want to be able to get a good bond when I glue them in. Thanks to all for the comments. It is nice to know I am on the right track. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1803 BigLars Engineer Premium Member Posted - 01/30/2015 :  6:56:19 PM     Roland, I think I can move the score to 100 now. Looking forward to the next pictures. I will also have to stop in and see the finished model.

It's always fun to watch when you are doing something. Always new ideas or info on stuff I had left out on my stuff. Question: Did the traveling hoist in your shop come as a Western Scale kit or did you scratch it? Take care. Rick Country: USA | Posts: 822 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 01/31/2015 :  7:01:08 PM     Hi Rick. Yes it is a Western Scale kit. I was lucky to find someone at a train show who was selling stuff from his late father-in-law really cheap. Most of the machinery in the shop came from him. Larry, I was hoping for a 10, but 100 is impressive Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1803 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 02/02/2015 :  1:15:42 PM     Weather really sucks today so I am stuck insidewith no chores to do. Put this together this morning. I felt the shop needed a little color so went with yellow under all the rust and grime. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1803 CieloVistaRy Fireman Posted - 02/02/2015 :  1:37:29 PM       Roland that is a wonderful creation. You never disappoint!

I have some pieces I still haven't painted for my lowly machine shop, and I think I'll give that yellow a try! Very cool stuff! Russ Country: USA | Posts: 671 TRAINS1941 Engineer Premium Member Posted - 02/02/2015 :  2:28:32 PM     Just another outstanding piece of equipment.

I think I have built 4 of them so far. I got the idea from one of the photos Geezer posted, just didn't use a lawnmower engine for power. It will go somewhere in the shop. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1803 Geezer Engineer Premium Member Posted - 02/02/2015 :  7:46:12 PM     Roland - neat mech you gave birth to.....
