Boice Crane OSS

This is one of my quest machines for awhile now. A friend of mine told me he had got two about year ago and was only going to keep one. So naturally I had to take the other one out of his shop.

Boice Crane OSS, and it works like a dream. Finding spindles is a little difficult, but hopefully have a 3/4" and a 1/2" coming in from afar. I tried making a spindle on the southbend, but . . . well. . . lets just say that didn't work. Anyway, here she is. . .

Since the pictures, I got a boot put on the spindle, and actually used it on some curves the other day. So far I'm limited to the one spindle I borrowed from a buddy. Having differing spindles and grits will be very useful.

Nice, heavy machine. For those not in the know, this looks like an oscillating spindle sander. Real nice to have in the shop for those inside radius sanding jobs.
