Kelly’s introduced
Hi group. I’m Kelly I’m 67 and started learning skills in high school shop class. I spent 47 years repairing elevators. Started with Babit bearings and carbon contacts. TTL ( transistor transistor logic with real transistors). Ended with microprocessor controls. I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing most every bad idea an engineer could think of.
Current projects in the shop are a 1928 willys whippet, a 1951 mgtd, a 1980 Mercedes’ 450 sl, a 1971 military deuce, and a 2001 corvette. If it’s old rusty and broken it usually follows me home. Shop tools include a 1900 Hamilton lathe ( serial number 51) from the battle ship Oregon, a 1920s shaper, a 1910 bandsaw from the boing airplane factory, and a few modern tools. Currently I need to make a sheet metal roller for model t speedster bucket seats and an English wheel. Kelly |
