    Default More old machinery

    Visited the Qantas Founders Museum in Longreach. Lots to see, could have spent longer there........

    One of the buildings there is the old Qantas Hangar complete with workshops, all in original condition.

    I'll let the photos speak for themselves.

    Wow, that's awesome.

    I love those old Shell 44's.

    They'd be pretty rare.

    Great photo's and thanks for posting.

    Is that green machine a bandsaw? Not clear on that one.

    Cheers

    The worst that can happen is you will fail.
    But at least you tried.

    Thanks Rob. The green machine is a combination saw, bandsaw and planer. I forgot to upload one photo with that info on it, it is there now.

    That big red lathe is cool, do you have any details on it?
