A rare view inside the batcave.

It ought to be your hand for the crime of mounting that nice vise too far back from the edge of the bench...

Greyson

Well it works ok , just didn`t want it sticking out too much catching me every time I walk by it.

Mount a bumper type receiver hitch (female side to bottom of bench. Mount vise to a plate of steel (3/8" thick) Then weld the male part of the receiver to the plate of steel the vise is mounted to. This allows you to totally remove the vise until needed. When needed, slide male part into female, stick lock pin in receiver and walla, instant vise just hanging off of your bench.

It's a duel voltage motor so I`ll have to figure that out plus I want to pull it apart to clean and check it.  I`ll have to see if my converter can run it, then belts so it may be a while.
Plus I`m sick of too many on finished projects so Chomper is relegated to windows of time.

Got most of the motor apart , looks brand new inside, the bearings were made by God they are a thing of beauty , such fantastic quality.
This is the same brand/vintage motor as the one on my drill press, should make a fantastic sound on start up.

This effen set screw is all that's keeping me from getting it all apart.
I`ve tried heat, jaffy juice, Kroll . The bolts are out of the collar so the only thing holding on is the pressure from this set screw on the key so I thought I`d just try the puller on it and was rewarded with a broken pulley.
I`ll give it one more day of soaking then I`ll cut the fucker off and find a new pulley.

wow.  I wish I had one for some reason.  I remember one at a scrap yard in my home town.  It was on the main drag next to a Chevy/Cadillac dealer.  The bldgs. are now gone & I think the site is on an EPA watch list.  A "challenged" guy ran the alligator all day long.  Local factories hauled shearings & scrap to that yard.  There was a Penn. RR siding along the back of the yard most scrap was shipped off by rail. I would love to see your's in action.  Please post some videos when you get it running.

Just did a trade deal on a 30hp phase converter so the future looks good for Chomper coming alive :)
