[gingery_machines] Re: Second casting

 

Hi Randy,

Those are some nice looking castings! Sweet job on the snap flask as well.

I always wanted to do a Gingery lathe as a cylindrical grinder (keep the grit off my "real" lathe). Just a thought while you're in "production".

I posted a photo of it, my first casting and the pattern on Gingery machines 2, under Randy's lathe. This is fun stuff! Next thing I want to do is build a snap flask for the end pieces, since I have to make four of them. Making the patterns seems to be most of the work, so I'm casting an extra of every part for a buddy who doesn't have the tools to do this stuff on his own.
