Or is it too dangerous, hazardous, etc? I would really like to see all that equipment, even if it weren't running. <br /><br />ChuckSteve McVoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04532876229260136792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1472759590943881139.post-43173462511762575142010-10-05T16:41:36.839-07:002010-10-05T16:41:36.839-07:00I am a firm believer in the "don't reinve...I am a firm believer in the "don't reinvent the wheel" concept. Scotty had a very good work flow at his place. I think we should take a cue from him and copy his layout. Work flow and equipment was pretty much laid out in the same order the rebuilding steps take place. I am only estimating, but I believe the work area at Scotty's place was roughly 30' x40' But we could compact that a great deal. I think about 800 Sq Ft would probably work well.<br /><br />Main steps in rebuilding are 1. Wash sink, 2. gun removal, 3, re-necking, 4. vertical lathe to install gun, 5. evacuation oven & getter flashing, 6 cathode activation and KNocker bench.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
