On Sunday April 11 2005 members of the New Jersey Logan Lathe Owners Group (along with several members of the NEMES who have the good taste to belong to both groups) journeyed to Fred Eisner's place in Yonkers NY. The get together was ramrodded by NJLLOG founder and leader Joe Schultes.
We gathered at Fred's and spent a couple of hours looking at machinery, talking and learning a thing or two that we didn't know before.
Here are some pictures of Fred's shop
This folder brake was one of the first things I saw upon entering
I believe this was a Clausing mill with a B'port head mounted
Fred had a nice selection of small Atlas shapers literally on the shelf
There were a number of good size bandsaws to choose from
This locomotive is one of Fred's ongoing projects
I really like old boxes and this one was neat
A pair of small surface grinders were available
This very nice pair of small mills were already spoken for
In our shop at school we have one of these alligator clip squeezers but ours is about one fourth the size of this one.
