Rebirth of a Denford MIRAC CNC Lathe

<< < (26/31) > >>

hermetic:
Had one of those dispensers on my workshop wall in the seventies, it had masking tape as well, and as you pulled the paper off, it applied the tape to the paper. Very quick when it worked right, and a bugger when it didnt, you needed to use good quality masking tape!

vtsteam:
If in doubt, use more glue...... :lol:  :beer:

vtsteam:
btw, I'm guessing that's acrylic.

Nice having a see through reservoir, for obvious reasons.  :thumbup:

awemawson:
Well Steve, yes it probably is.

As the MIRAC is still waiting for a coat or two of white paint I've not refitted the reservoir, which is still sitting as per the photo next to the workshop coffee making area AND IT'S NOT LEAKED  :ddb:

awemawson:
I set too masking up the MIRAC this morning - outside is fine but the interior was a pitta  :bugeye:

However the paper dispenser came into its own - would have been tricky without it.


... then the big decision - spray indoors and get overspray over the rest of the workshop, or wheel it outdoors where if the wind picks up I'll lose the paper masking and insects can be an issue. Well it's a dry day with the sun shining and only a light breeze so I pushed it outside.

On the overspray issue, I'm using a 'detailing gun' and actually the overspray is fairly minimal though still there.
