When I reported to Air Force basic training in 1966, we were each instructed to stamp out our name for stenciling our duffel bags. The machine we used was very similar to if not identical to yours.
And the job crane - it looks like it’s simply welded at the top. I had a cool upgrade idea. Hooking a brace bar with different notches to hold bigger weights.?
Stan, will you sand blast that Cylindrical Square before grinding it, mainly to get rid of the scale build up in the depressions on each end of the cylinder faces ?
Glad to see that stencil machine getting some Stan love. That thing literally weighs a ton!
Cheers,
Tom

Interesting stuff, Stan. Intermics are really useful, but a pain to read.
👍👍
Does the hole in the chuck create an imbalance while in use?
Not that I've noticed (top speed 1000 rpm)
Did you use the argon purge on the D2 heat treats?
Na, it's getting ground anyway.
Thx Stan

I just scrubbed it down in the sink with red scotchbrite, it leaves a durable black finish everywhere that isn't ground.
Segment? You mean sector arms?
Yes, sector arms that create a segment.
