Roland,
New to the forum, but I have already found my favorite thread. Great work on everything I has seen so far. Have not made it through all 59 pages yet, but all of your work is very impressive. Thank you for taking the time to document for all of us. Keep up the great work!
P.S. Currently reside in Lexington, KY, but lived in Lancaster, PA for a couple years..off Columbia near Rohrerstown (worked in Middletown)
Would love to have been able to see your work in person!!

Russ, thanks for the link. That place is really interesting. Hope to see progress photos of your build.
Rich, Thanks for the comments. If you ever plan to come back to Lancaster just let me know.

Received an early Christmas present, a Samsung Galaxy with a better camera than I had. Took a few photos to practice. The first one is the completed workbench. It will be partly covered by the loft so I did not add much detail. The second is just a general shot. The building is starting to fill up.
Geezer didn't make this shot either. He is probably in his office chewing out Jerry.
Thanks for checking in. Roland

With the holidays my time at the bench has been shortened but I have managed to do a little something most days. I finished the line shaft and have started to add some belts. It is the progress I have been looking forward to.

Nice start. Not the easiest part of the machines for sure.
