I heard about Open Scource Egology on CBC radio. I have been a student of machine Tool History for a while. I like to build things I guess I always have. Right now I am most interested in:

Multi-Machine Lathe Platforms.

Accessories

Power hacksaw.

Portable hydraulic line boring and large hole drilling.

Hexing Mill for making nuts and bolts.

Thread tapping machine for making valve bodies and threading nuts.

Rapid Pipe Threading Head for making bolts and threaded rod and threading pipe

Components

1. Spindle Head and Shaft System

2. Bed Rail System

3. X and Y Travel systems

4. Spindle drive system

5. Ridgid Pipe Threading Head

6. Skid Frame

7. Hydraulic power generation system.

Development Plan

Build a high torque low RPM lathe that is portable,powered by hydraulics.Constructed from a Diesel V-8 engine bloc complete with cyclinder heads That can fuctioning as a vertical or hoizontal lathe simply by standing it on end or laying it down. This is then housed in a 20' shipping container or trailer for portablity. This may be set-up for a varity of machining services.
