Just another weekend at GunLab

This weekend there are 6 people here working on 15 different projects. My son is trying to get his home work completed for class and helping my next door neighbor trying to write a program in delcam for the webb mill. In addition he is working on some new forms for our company.

My neighbor,Alan, is trying to get a project programed on the webb for new drawer supports for his kitchen cabinets. I just finished the update to the air system in the shop for the new end mill sharpening setup.

IMG_0633sAfter completing the air system I went to work in the fab shop to finish the lighting circuit in the fab shop so I can put a ceiling up.

We are also enclosing the fab shop and installing window. I try to do everything with recycled material if possible. So first I had to remove all the nails from the lumber.

David, a friend of mine and the machinist that use to work for me, is working on one of his projects. So he is verifying his cad program to run parts on the CNC lathe.

He then went to work on the manual lathe to turn down some 6061 and getting ready to knurl it.IMG_0065sAll this and it is just Saturday. Tomorrow I am doing pressing for the rear top cover on the VG1-5 project. We need to re-write a couple of programs and finish Alan’s project. It is never boring here at GunLab.
