ThomasPowers Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 needs more of those graphic safety stickers showing fingers being severed, etc. Looks like a nice rebuild have you tested it yet? Made a set of dies to flatten beer cans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianinsa Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 Thanks for all the replies! I love this machine, but you often take what you love and hold dear for granted. I've owned this for more than 15 years and other than the initial rebuild and the occasional bit of lube done nothing more than use her hard. I have now also redone the 'babbit' bearings and she's a bit tight so it needs a bit of run-in . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Can't help with the Pels but this thread will help you get the best out of the forum. https://www.iforgeiron.com/topic/53873-read-this-first/ BTW , welcome to IFI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlpservicesinc Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Nice ironworker indeed.. I'm surprised there isn't a feed /drop table.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianinsa Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 sorry . i missed the last two posts , in the past pels used to respond to and help with enquiries , but alas no more! As for feed/ drop plates/tables we bolt them on as needed as i have some unresolved space issues 500 SQM. seems smaller than i remembered( i recon old age is the problem and not too much stuff) my dearest begs to differ on that though.
