Charlie C. at Industrial Machine Sales in Alton, ILL. is on the job.
We spent several hours coming through his parts bins a few weeks ago to come up with items needed to fabricate the slickest shaft machine ever. His system of organization is chaotic but he found some great parts.
He was unwilling to sell me these parts though, unless I hired him to build it. He really wanted to do this so how could I say no.
Last Friday, Ingo and I played hooky and drove up to see him. We delivered some missing pillow block bearings and gave him the latest specs we needed from the machine.
He gave us a brief lesson on good machining and he was off to the races.
In a few weeks we should be spinning shafts.
