A look around my shop.

My workshop is mostly housed in 2 rooms that were used by a tennent for training forklift drivers. Thank god for the aircon.
The first 2 pics are of units outside the rooms. Radial arm drill, 16" power hacksaw and Cincinatti No 2 T & C grinder for rebuild. Breirley Z25 drill grinder and welding equipment under the stairs.
Pic 3 has a Tos T & C grinder, monster of a thing, and Cinci attachments for refurb.
pic 4 shows my loco frames which go with the boiler in the last pic. Rong Fu T & C, used on annular cutters, Servian T & C with a form relief grinder and the Clarkson in the corner.
Pic 5 again the last 2 T & C grinders and a bench on wheels so I can wheel all the grinders out the door and make the mess near the stairs.
Pic 6 which is so bad, a J & S 540 surface grinder complete with spindle leak.
Pic 7 into the next room with a First mill and slotting head, small powersaw, CMX450 shaper and a bit of the Kearns S borer.
Pic 8 has the stripped Borer and original Silky Oak tool cabinet, complete with boring bars and snout bar.
Pic 9 has my Mazak Mate lathe and shelving.
The last 2 pics are the same as I can't find how to remove one of them. Model loco parts, a riding car, vintage engines and a huge dividing head.
Pity this old bloke has to work or I'd be here every day.
Hope you enjoy.
Regards
BC

Thanks for sharing the inside of your workshop. I wish mine was that well organised.

Thank you for your shop tour. I am impressed with your nice machines. Nice small radial drill!!
I hope you will document your work on the Cincinnati t&c grinder. I have a AI Hembrug t&c grinder that I am working on that is a copy of the Cincinnati for the most part.
