Back together again - up and running

Right - let's put it all back together.

Gears:


 Belt housing:





Spindle drive assembly (pulley):


Motor:




Power drawbar:


All done!


Powered it up - all working nicely. Initially it was making some funny noises but these were clearly just the sound of the new grease slurping about and redistributing itself. But after just a minute or so, everything settled down and now it runs very nicely indeed. Manually changed to low speed range - this also runs very quietly.

TIG welder up and running - after some fault diagnostics and repair

Finally got some time to connect up the flow meter and argon hose. Plugged in the torch and ground cables and the torch hose etc. Powered it...
