A list of interesting resources around the net about Schaublin 13 milling machines. Permanent work in progress 😄.
This is a compilation of interesting sites and documents around Internet about Boley Leinen LZ4 lathes series.
Some time ago I found somewhere a very interesting Deckel technical notice about how to work with the slotting head on an universal milling machine. I guess it could be of general interest and thus I share it:
Deckel Butlletin technique 2/72: «Travaux de mortaisage sur machines FP»
Some days ago appeared in ebay a great Leinen MLZ 4 SB lathe to sell. The pictures in ebay also showed a manual for the lathe. This model is close to the type of my lathe. Thus, I decided to talk with the seller and to ask him if it is possible to send me a copy of the manual. People at der-gebrauchtwarenhandel, the Ebay seller, where really kind and they sent me a scan of the manual.
I found somewhere the user manual of the Klaiber WS2 and some brochures. Here they are:
Klaiber WS IIa manual (in German) Klaiber WS IIa (mit Automatik) brochure Klaiber WS IIa, examples of use
An interesting machine any workshop needs is a tool grinder. In the net it’s possible to find information about many home made tool grinders (or tool grinding gigs). Most of the designs have known names related to the design author. This blog entry is the result of collecting some of the designs to build a small tool grinder for the workshop. Any suggestion about a missing design will be considered ;-).
Some days ago Sam Kowalski, a happy owner of a Boley-Leinen laths asked me for the dimensions of the collet’s drawbar. He is posting some nice pictures of his lathe restoration here. Sam, here you have a handmade sketch of the drawbar ;-). Don’t hesitate to ask for more details if needed.
