I have a hobby machine shop that includes:
1914 Leblond 14: lathe
1917 Hendey 12" Lathe
1870 Bement & son 20" x 168" lathe
1913 Superior 24" camelback drill press
1953 Delta 17" drill press
1936 Gorton 9j vertical mill
1903 Brown and Sharp #3 horizontal mill
1950's Linsey jig bore
25 ton 6' brake press
30" upright band saw
power hack saw
and many more small machines.
I enjoy building just about anything imaginable. I have built a few engines using air compressors. All of my machines are wired and ready to run, none are collecting dust in storage. Part of my hobby is making them run. I hope to post a few builds. Thanks Jonathan

Hi Jonathan - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

Sounds like you are very well-equipped! Any tools younger than 60 years old?

So, what's next up on your project list?

Hi Jonathan,

Welcome - glad to have you here!

What a fantastic collection of vintage tooling! Let's see some pics…

What are you planning to restore next?

Working on 4 projects now.
A 4x4 wrecker
A rollback
A bench using horse drawn buggy springs.
A Holmes hydraulic retrofit wrecker.
My projects are usually bigger then ost would want to attack. I just started recently making videos and I have a very cheap camera, so they are not great. If you have time take a look at the projects.
I almost forgot my bike project, it's powered by a quincy A4 air compressor mad into a 4 stroke engine. Almost forgot mu quincy A4 that I am making into a hit and miss. I finish my stuff it just takes a while.

Hi Jonathan, that's quite a collection of vintage (and well-made!) machinery you've got. Welcome to the forums!
